API AI Tools Disclosure

At the Ahimsa Peace Institute, we are committed to innovation, integrity, and transparency in all aspects of our work — including the tools we use to amplify our mission of nonviolence, peacebuilding, and global education.

To support our content creation, research, and outreach efforts, we utilize a range of freely available generative AI tools. These include:

    • OpenAI’s ChatGPT (free-tier use)

    • DALL·E by OpenAI (Technology Grant image generation)

    • Canva Magic Media (Technology Grant tools within Canva)

    • Perplexity.ai (AI-powered search and summarization)

    • Microsoft Copilot (Technology Grant integrated into Office suite where available)

    • Google’s Gemini (for research and writing support)

    • Google Ads AI (Technology Grant for limited nonprofit promotion under the Google Ad Grants program)

    All tools are used in accordance with their respective terms of use, and we do not store or process sensitive personal data through these platforms. Our usage is strictly aligned with our values of transparency, ethical communication, and peace-centered action.

    As a nonprofit organization, we currently only utilize free-tier or grant-based versions of these platforms, ensuring that no donor or public funding is allocated toward premium AI tools at this time.

    We continually assess emerging tools for accessibility, safety, and alignment with our mission. As technology evolves, we remain committed to using it responsibly and in service of human dignity, creativity, and the collective good.

    Began using AI in late summer of 2023.
