Source Check Verdicts

partial75% confidence

Last checked: 3/25/2026

The source confirms the grantees (David Baker and Brian Kuhlman), the prize name (2004 Feynman Prize - Theory), and the year (2004). However, the amount is contradicted: the source states $10,000 per prize, not $5,000. The funder is identified as 'Foresight Institute' in the source, while the record uses an opaque identifier 'NPPTvNqRXA' which cannot be verified from this text. The specific month (October) is not mentioned in the source. These discrepancies prevent full confirmation.
