Found: MacArthur announced $10 million in aligned grantmaking in support of Humanity AI on February 12, 2026. The source text is truncated and does not list individual grantees or grant amounts.

Note: While the source confirms that MacArthur announced $10 million in grantmaking on February 12, 2026 as part of the Humanity AI initiative, the provided excerpt does not contain the specific list of grantees or individual grant amounts. The text is clearly incomplete (ends mid-sentence in the 'Humanities and Culture' section), so it cannot be verified whether AI Now Institute received a $2M grant or what specific amounts were allocated to individual organizations. The claim requires information not present in the provided source text.
