The source confirms the $40M figure and that it is for a 2025 Technical AI Safety RFP. However, the claim states '$40M across 21 research areas' but the source text excerpt provided does not mention the number of research areas (21). The source confirms the $40M amount and the 2025 RFP, but the specific detail about '21 research areas' cannot be verified from this excerpt. The source does reference 'Part 1' which 'gives a brief synopsis of' research areas, suggesting that information exists elsewhere in the full RFP, but it is not included in the provided excerpt.
