Coefficient Giving (formerly Open Philanthropy), the largest funder in existential risk reduction, has issued a Request for Proposals for Technical AI Safety Research focused on alignment, interpretability, and control of advanced AI systems. The RFP accepts proposals on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline. Coefficient Giving expects to spend roughly $40 million on this initiative and is open to spending substantially more depending on application quality. The program funds a wide range of activities including fundamental alignment research, interpretability and mechanistic understanding of AI systems, AI control and containment strategies, evaluation and benchmarking of AI safety properties, scalable oversight methods, and seed funding for new AI safety research organizations. This is distinct from Coefficient Giving's separate AI Governance Research RFP which focuses on policy and governance questions.
Coefficient Giving (the rebranded Open Philanthropy) is funding technical research that advances the science of building safe and trustworthy AI systems, including understanding and preventing frontier AI system misalignment, creating valid evaluations and interventions, and developing oversight mechanisms for superhuman AI capabilities. The RFP is open to proposals of many sizes and purposes, ranging from rapid funding for API credits and compute to discrete 6-24 month projects, academic start-up packages, and seed funding for new research organizations. Coefficient expected to deploy roughly $40 million over the initial period, with capacity to spend substantially more depending on application quality.
