This groundbreaking book seamlessly blends social work and artificial intelligence to offer an essential guide for harnessing the power of AI for social good. After providing an introductory chapter that outlines approaches and ethical principles for utilizing AI in social work interventions, the book delves into a comprehensive intervention aimed at increasing the dissemination of HIV information among homeless youth. Through the use of algorithms, it identifies key individuals within their social networks, enabling targeted outreach and education efforts.

Furthermore, the book showcases interdisciplinary collaborations between AI and social work students, resulting in innovative solutions such as a chatbot for sexual health information and algorithms to assess stress levels among individuals with Type 2 Diabetes. These real-life examples from the USC Center for Artificial Intelligence in Society serve as powerful demonstrations of how social work and artificial intelligence can be effectively combined to drive positive change.

Whether you are a student, academic researcher, industry leader, or practitioner, this book provides valuable insights and practical applications that showcase the transformative potential of social work and AI in addressing pressing social issues. By leveraging the strengths of each discipline, we can create a more equitable and compassionate society for all.
