Official opportunity description and requirements excerpt: Humanities Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence | National Endowment for the Humanities National Endowment for the Humanities Application Review Process Grantee Communications Toolkit NEH International Opportunities Workshops, Resources, & Tools Emergency and Disaster Relief Featured NEH-Funded Projects Humanities Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence Humanities Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most powerful technologies of our time and will have profound consequences for civil rights and civil liberties, safety and security, and human flourishing. Questions about the impact of AI on American society and culture are fundamentally rooted in such humanities fields as ethics, law, history, philosophy, anthropology, sociology, media studies, and cultural studies. NEH’s founding legislation tasks the agency with making the American people “masters of their technology and not its unthinking servants.” Accordingly, NEH launched "Humanities Perspectives on AI." This program encompasses several funding opportunities to support projects that bring humanities insights into exploration of the challenges and opportunities AI presents for American civic and social life. NEH is particularly interested in projects that explore the impacts of AI-related technologies for the nation’s values, including civil rights, civil liberties, privacy, and human flourishing, as well as on America’s economic competitiveness and national security. Humanities Research Centers on Artificial Intelligence This NEH grant program provides up to $750,000 to universities and independent research organizations to support the creation of humanities research centers focusing on the ethical, legal, or societal implications of artificial intelligence. This NEH funding opportunity advances humanistic knowledge by supporting teams of scholars working on a joint endeavor. Independent scholars or those affiliated with an institution may apply for support to research and write about topics in AI and the humanities through NEH’s Fellowships , Awards for Faculty at HBCUs , or Public Scholars funding opportunities. Since its launch, NEH has awarded over $6 million in funding to support individual scholars and teams of researchers on a range of AI-related humanities projects. Examples include: NEH awarded a total of $2.72 million to Bard College, North Carolina State University, the University of Oklahoma, Norman, the University of California, Davis, and the University of Richmond to establish the first AI research centers and pilot collaborative research projects that examine AI through a multidisciplinary humanities lens.
