Notes
[Global Catastrophic Risks Capacity Building] Open Philanthropy recommended two grants totaling $3,382,029 to MATS Research to support the ML Alignment & Theory Scholars (MATS) program. The MATS program is an educational seminar and independent research program that provides talented scholars with talks, workshops, and research mentorship in the fields of AI alignment, interpretability, and governance. The program also connects participants with the Berkeley AI safety research community. This follows our November 2023 support and falls within our focus area of Global Catastrophic Risks Capacity Building.
