Manifund is seeking donations for its 2026 AI safety regranting program, highlighting past successes to demonstrate the value of its approach. The program emphasizes early grants' potential for high returns and the advantage of dispersed grantmakers identifying opportunities before larger, centralized funders. Notable past grants include initial funding for Timaeus, which later merged and received a significant grant, and support for Rob Long's research on AI consciousness, which led to the founding of Eleos AI.
