    Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $200,000 over two years to UC Berkeley to support the Center for Human-Compatible Artificial Intelligence (CHAI). CHAI plans to use these funds to support graduate student and postdoc research.

    This supplements our August 2016 support for CHAI’s launch, and falls within our focus area of potential risks from advanced artificial intelligence.
