Grantmaking

Funding groundbreaking research in AI safety

FAR.AI supports academics and independent researchers explore innovative solutions to critical risks posed by AI through our targeted grantmaking program. Due to limited evaluation capacity, our grantmaking program is currently limited to researchers nominated by experts as having a strong track record in this area. We plan to soon launch public "Requests for Proposals" targeting high-impact research areas. Our grantmaking program is funded by a $12 million grant generously provided from Open Philanthropy for this purpose.
