About
Silicon Valley Open Intelligence & Culture Foundation (SVOIC Foundation) is a California nonprofit public benefit organization recognized under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
We promote the understanding and inheritance of traditional Chinese culture through artificial intelligence, exploring how interdisciplinary collaboration and modern technology can preserve, transform, and amplify cultural heritage in the AI era.
Purpose
The Foundation pursues two complementary aims:
Innovative Research & Practice
Exploring the integration of traditional Chinese culture — such as the regulated verse forms of classical Chinese poetry — with music, through artificial intelligence. Through interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge model design, we advance the research and practice of traditional Chinese artistic forms within AI.
Cultural Education & Exchange
Leveraging our network and partnerships to host forums in Silicon Valley, support innovative projects, and promote educational resources and outstanding cultural products from various regions.
Projects
Living examples of our purpose — open platforms exploring AI in cultural and community contexts.
