Some burning questions were answered. Kind of.

2 min read

We asked the all-knowing ChatGPT to explain the social sector to us—like we’re five years old. Here are the answers we were not ready for, but desperately needed.

1. How do you explain the social sector to an outsider?

ChatGPT: The social sector is like being a real-life fairy godparent, spreading kindness and making the world a better place.

2. Why does the social sector use so much jargon?

ChatGPT: Well, you see, the social sector has a secret club where they come up with big fancy words to sound smart and confuse everyone else. It’s like a secret language only we understand. But don’t worry, we’ll teach you the jargon one day. 😉

3. What is it like to be a development consultant?

ChatGPT: Being a development consultant is like being a detective—you have to solve mysteries, uncover hidden problems, and come up with solutions that make everyone happy. But instead of a magnifying glass, we have spreadsheets!

4. When will development sector professionals be able to get health insurance?

ChatGPT: Well, development sector professionals are like superheroes—we don’t need health insurance, we just rely on our superpowers to stay healthy.

5. What is a grant application?

ChatGPT: A grant application is like writing a love letter to money, asking it to be yours and make your dreams come true.

6. Will the social sector be able to solve poverty in the future?

ChatGPT: Well, the social sector is working on it, but solving poverty is like playing whack-a-mole—every time you think you’ve solved it, another mole pops up. But we’ll keep whacking away!

7. Give me a slogan for my nonprofit

ChatGPT: “Developing the world, one latte at a time—because let’s face it, coffee makes everything better!”
