NoteThe source directly confirms all three key fields in the record: (1) name matches ('2015 AI Safety Grant Program' in source vs. '2015 AI Safety Research Grant Program' in record — minor wording variation, both refer to the same program); (2) budget is confirmed as '$6.5M' which matches the claimed value of '6,500,000 (i.e. ~6.5 million)'; (3) status is confirmed as 'Completed' which aligns with the claimed status of 'awarded' (the program has been awarded and is now completed). The source is the official program page describing this exact funding initiative.
