    Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $5,500,000 to Metaculus to improve its forecasting platform and service offerings. We believe this will provide Open Philanthropy, our grantees, and many others with improved tools for effective planning in high-priority areas such as mitigating extreme risks from AI and synthetic pathogens.
