At a recent conference held at Stanford's Graduate School of Business, practitioners and researchers identified benefits and challenges of using AI to support sustainability, resilience, and social responsibility.

MS&E Assistant Professor Irene Lo has been working with San Francisco Unified School District since 2019 to help design a system for assigning the district’s kindergarteners to elementary schools. She shared how AI tools helped her model how families are assigned to schools, improving the process to meet district and parent goals.

This week’s featured senior project team was sponsored by Tauroi Technologies, a quantitative investment firm that develops data-driven trading strategies using machine learning, statistical modeling, and alternative datasets.

Hudson Huff, Jeremy Heyer, Tyler Reif Snyder, and Jacob Leon developed a machine learning–driven algorithm for Tauroi Technologies that detects adverse selection risk in prediction markets by identifying informational trading patterns, which enables market makers to adjust quotes and reduce exposure to informed traders.

This week's featured senior project team was sponsored by Systems Utilization Research For (SURF) Stanford Medicine, an interdisciplinary group of mathematicians, engineers, physicians, nurses, hospital administrators, and students dedicated to improving healthcare through the optimization of hospital operations.

Alexandra Barajas, Mary Frazier, Viviana Iglesias, and Jireh Mendoza analyzed pediatric heart transplant data from multiple institutions using statistical and machine learning methods. They identified key clinical factors that influence graft survival and developed a prototype decision-support framework to improve the assessment of donor-recipient compatibility.

As AI tools become commonplace in the workplace, the way teams form and collaborate will evolve. To explore this emerging field, Stanford HAI collaborated with Google DeepMind to launch the AI for Organizations Grand Challenge, an invitation for scholars worldwide to submit their best ideas for studying the future of collaboration within organizations.

More than 200 teams of faculty and PhD students from 156 universities responded to the challenge, which was co-organized by MS&E Associate Professor Melissa Valentine and co-judged by MS&E Emeritus Professor Bob Sutton.
