Today, we are witnessing a wide range of concerns about the jeopardy of the human position in relation to artificial intelligence-based technologies. The study field of human-centricity artificial intelligence was established in response to these concerns, as it was necessary for human involvement in the development of these systems. The current research is an endeavor to encourage and fortify the convergence of two potential study forces—sociology and artificial intelligence—in order to establish the human-centricity concept. A systematic review of the existing literature was implemented in this investigation. The projectile sampling strategy was implemented to conduct the sampling. The primer set and articles were selected in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. To analyze the data, we used Double Diamond innovative design framework. The research findings were categorized into eight levels, including: Human-centricity artificial intelligence; Problems of human-centricity artificial intelligence in the production of social sciences and sociology; Interdisciplinary research on the human-centricity concept in sociological studies of artificial intelligence; The position of human-centricity artificial intelligence in the methodology of social sciences; Principles and regulations governing the explainability of artificial intelligence; The significance of the human-centricity concept in the comprehension and perception of artificial intelligence by actors; Artificial intelligence and human interaction; Specific disciplines of study that are oriented toward human artificial intelligence. Two problems related to artificial intelligence and three problems related to humans (in the general sense) were identified through the systematic review of the existing literature. The coexistence of the issues, as well as the adoption of varying perspectives by the articles under investigation in relation to the aforementioned issues, has resulted in the development of 22 distinct approaches to addressing these issues.
