AI RISC

About the Department

The Center for RISC is the brainchild of Steven Levitt, professor of economics at the University of Chicago and co-author of Freakonomics. We are not an academic group or research lab. Instead, we investigate today’s social issues by combining unconventional perspectives with empirical data, generating radical solutions with real-world relevance.

Currently, we’re focusing our efforts on building and scaling Project Donor, Foster Insights, and The Levitt Lab.
