This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) provides $596,868 to Syracuse University to conduct research on the relationship between human perception of AI systems' mental capabilities and the benefits of AI companionship.

The key objectives of the project are to: 1) develop and validate measurements for AI mind perception, companionship, and relational benefits; 2) build a data-driven model of the relationships between those variables; and 3) test the model in short- and long-term human-AI relations. The research aims to determine whether perceiving AI systems as mindful entities is necessary for realizing the benefits of AI companionship, such as reduced loneliness and enhanced well-being. The project includes a sub-award to the Board of Trustees of Illinois State University to support the research. The award will be performed over a 3-year period from January 2025 to December 2027.
