Summary
This article examines the ongoing fallout for AI safety and effective altruism organizations that received funding from FTX's Future Fund, months after the exchange's November 2022 collapse. It details how grantees struggled with abrupt funding losses, project cancellations, and organizational uncertainty as the broader EA and AI safety funding ecosystem faced a significant shock.
Key Points
- •FTX's Future Fund had committed hundreds of millions to EA and AI safety causes before the collapse halted or clawed back many grants.
- •Months after the collapse, many beneficiary organizations were still scrambling to find replacement funding or wind down projects.
- •The crisis exposed significant concentration risk in EA/AI safety funding, with many organizations overly dependent on FTX-linked capital.
- •Some organizations had to lay off staff or cancel research programs due to the sudden loss of expected funding.
- •The episode prompted broader reflection on funding diversification and governance within the AI safety and EA communities.
