The CLR Fund is a rolling-application grantmaker run by the Center on Long-Term Risk supporting research that reduces s-risks (suffering risks) from advanced AI, particularly through multi-agent safety, cooperative AI, decision theory, and the prevention of catastrophic conflict and worst-case outcomes from AI systems.
The fund supports individuals (independent researchers, graduate students, early-career fellows), small charitable organizations, and academic projects whose work addresses neglected technical and conceptual problems at the intersection of AI alignment and long-term suffering risks.
Priority research areas include multi-agent reinforcement learning safety, game-theoretic alignment, cooperative AI mechanisms, decision theory for AI, threat modeling for advanced AI conflict, and wild animal welfare adjacent to AI ethics. Grant decisions are made by simple majority approval from fund managers Tobias Baumann, Emery Cooper, and Tristan Cook.
Past awards have ranged from approximately $5,000 short research grants to $251,000 multi-year project support.

Tarbell offers grants of $1,000 to $20,000 to support original reporting on artificial intelligence and its societal impacts. The program funds journalism across six priority areas: accountability reporting on AI companies, AI policy and politics, AI explainers and analysis for general audiences, AI in government and militaries, AI labor and economic impacts, and AI developments in China. The program emphasizes published written journalism in established outlets but also considers podcasts, video, and other formats. Selection criteria prioritize impact potential, reach to influential audiences, demonstrated journalistic experience, and feasibility of the proposed project.
The Authors Alliance, with funding from the Knight Foundation, runs the AI, Authorship, and the Public Interest grant program awarding up to $20,000 per project to researchers tackling the most pressing copyright and authorship questions raised by generative AI. Priority research areas include the criteria that should determine whether AI-assisted works merit copyright protection, the contours of meaningful human authorship in AI-mediated creative processes, comparative global frameworks for AI and copyright law, and the design of sustainable opt-out and consent systems for training data. The first round drew over 160 proposals and funded five recipients in 2025; Authors Alliance has signaled additional rounds to broaden the field of AI copyright scholarship oriented to the public interest. Eligible work spans legal scholarship, empirical research, policy analysis, and comparative law studies.
The FLI Digital Media Accelerator funds digital content creators developing video, audio, written, and social content that explains advanced AI risks and developments to broad audiences. Supported content addresses topics such as AGI implications, alignment challenges, corporate power concentration in AI, AI policy, and AI safety research. Eligible formats include YouTube explainers, TikTok and Instagram channels, newsletters, podcasts, and existing channels adding AI risk content series. FLI seeks creators who can translate complex AI safety topics into language and formats their audiences understand and find relatable. Funding can support production costs, scripting, fact-checking, expert interviews, and platform growth. The program is rolling and managed by Maggie at maggie@futureoflife.org, with applications submitted via FLI's Airtable applicant portal.
Buried in the §200.340 termination provisions of the May 29 Uniform Grants Regulation rewrite is a fundamental restructuring of federal grant termination law. The new rule explicitly models grant termination on the Federal Acquisition Regulation's termination-for-convenience framework — agencies may terminate when termination is in the agency's interest, when an award no longer advances agency priorities, or when the national interest as it exists at the time of termination has shifted. Unlike federal contracts, the rule eliminates the objection, hearing, and appeal rights that have historically attached to termination decisions, and unlike federal contracts, it does not import the FAR's termination settlement framework. Multiyear grant recipients now bear contract-level cancellation risk without contract-level settlement protection.
Read articleThe Department of Education's May 19 final rule activates Workforce Pell on July 1, 2026, opening federal aid to short-term training programs as brief as 8 weeks. Governors and state workforce boards — not accreditors — pick the eligible industries, and only programs that pass earnings-vs-cost gates make the list.
Read articleThe May 19, 2026 final rule extends Pell Grants to 8-15 week workforce programs — but only those certified by governors as high-skill, high-wage, or in-demand, with at least 70% completion and 70% job placement. Here is what eligible colleges, workforce boards, and non-college providers should do before the July 1 launch.
