[Navigating Transformative AI] Grant Investigator: Daniel Dewey and Catherine Olsson This page was reviewed but not written by the grant investigators. University of Toronto staff also reviewed this page prior to publication. Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $520,000 over four years to the University of Toronto to support research on understanding, predicting, and controlling machine learning systems, led by Professor Chris Maddison, a former Open Phil AI Fellow. This funding is intended to enable three students and a postdoctoral researcher to work with Professor Maddison on the research. This falls within our focus area of potential risks from advanced artificial intelligence.
