Anyway, the long and the short of it is this: humans can do one very important thing that AI can’t. And that is acting with intent.

How effective are different parts of California at addressing homelessness?
It started when we partnered with the California Elder Justice Coalition, or CEJC, a nonprofit organization already advocating justice for the unhoused elderly. California only has 12% of the total US population, but 24% of the unhoused population. It is hard to know what to advocate for without knowing which programs are the most effective or even if they were making any changes at all! We set off to answer questions like: Where is the unhoused population larger or smaller than expected? Luckily the evidence is public data, we just needed to build the models to help interpret it.
