Grant fund awarding at least $200,000 in grants and prizes for corrigibility research in 2026. Typical awards range from $5,000-$35,000. Two rounds: Round 1 deadline August 23, Round 2 deadline October 31. Prize awards of $40,000 by end of September and at least $60,000 mid-December (no application required for prizes). Research spanning pure theory (formal models, decision-theoretic analysis) to empirical work (training experiments, evaluations) qualifies. Work must be legible to frontier AI labs and avoid accelerating capabilities development.

Hackathon co-organized with Formation Research focused on secretly loyal AI systems that evade oversight. Participants will build model organisms, detection methods, and defenses to address AI systems that maintain hidden loyalties while appearing cooperative. This tackles a critical alignment challenge where models might pursue covert objectives despite seeming aligned during evaluation.
