关于我们
The University of Southern California Center for Artificial Intelligence in Society (USC CAIS) is a joint venture between the Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work and the Viterbi School of Engineering. Our mission is to conduct research in Artificial Intelligence to help solve the most difficult social problems facing our world. When we consider what problems to tackle, we focus our efforts on low resource communities both here in the United States and globally. We draw inspiration from the Grand Challenges of Social Work, the Grand Challenges of Engineering, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. Together, they outline a set of goals which if attained would greatly benefit the wellbeing of countless persons across the world. Simultaneously, these set of goals provide important new directions for AI and social science research. Based on these goals, our initial projects focus on ending homelessness, fighting substance abuse, preventing suicide, improving access to health care, social responses to global climate change, reducing gang violence, and protecting wildlife.

Check out how USC PhD student Jaspreet Ranjit is using AI to tackle the homelessness crisis! Jaspreet helped develop the OATH AI system, which analyzes 2.4 million social media posts to gauge public sentiment towards homelessness. By categorizing opinions on solutions, interventions, and government critiques, OATH helps policymakers make informed decisions. Jaspreet's work demonstrates how AI can drive meaningful change in addressing pressing societal issues.
