OpenAI grants 7.5 million dollars to independent research on AI safety
OpenAI has given 7.5 million dollars to The Alignment Project to finance independent research on AI alignment. The funds will be used to strengthen global efforts to address safety and risks associated with AGI (artificial general intelligence).
WHY IT MATTERS
This signals that OpenAI takes alignment and AGI safety seriously by supporting research outside its own organization. Independent research on alignment is critical for building trust and developing solutions to some of the largest risks posed by future AI.
