Funders to approach for Civic AI Security Program Inc

Berkeley, California$980k revenue1 funder on file

CivAI is a nonprofit that spreads knowledge about AI capabilities and dangers in a unique way. Instead of research papers and abstract discussion, we produce interactive software experiences that provide a deep, intuitive sense of what AI can do and where its going. We present these demos to targeted audiences and make scalable versions available to the public. CivAI is aiming for a world where people deeply grasp AI capabilities, and make better decisions because of it. This is a world that holds AI developers responsible for the externalities they are producing, while also finding use cases that transform lives for the better. CivAIs work brings a new kind of evidence to the discourse - simple, intuitive, and incontrovertible because users can interact with it…
