Introduction

The use of AI in social sciences is on the rise and gaining significant momentum. The book aims to demystify AI and its applications in social sciences by offering a straightforward description of its key concepts and tools, all in an easy-to-understand language.

Fundamental Elements of AI

The book delves into the fundamental elements of AI systems, shedding light on their capabilities as well as their inherent constraints. Moreover, the author explores AI tools that find applications in the realm of social sciences, including decision support systems rooted in machine learning, as well as knowledge-based systems.

Key Issues in AI Applications

In addition, the book addresses the pertinent issues that, while not purely AI-related, are crucial in AI applications within the social sciences, most notably security and privacy considerations.
