AI and Social Work: Balancing Humanity and Technology | National Association of Social Workers

When Artificial Intelligence enters social work conversations, we often rush to warn colleagues about the potential harm it could cause—almost as if we’re trying to protect the profession from an existential threat. This podcast, featuring Dr. Lauri Goldkind, Professor at Fordham University’s Graduate School of Social Service and Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Technology in Human Services, invites us to face the reality that technology and social work must work together—leveraging strengths, reducing harm, and staying open to new possibilities. There’s no going back. So, what will the future hold? Dr. Goldkind discusses this with our host, social worker Lorrie Appleton. ------------------- Thanks for watching!
