Make Manifund the go-to place to evaluate and donate to the best orgs in AI safety. Identify the orgs, partner with them, and publish writeups and comparisons to inform large donors.

Historically, Manifund has been more of a place for random small projects to ask for crowdfunding, and for regrantors to seed their own projects, usually in the $10k-$100k range.
But now, timelines are shorter, so there’s much more donor interest in AI safety. But: not much clarity on who is doing what, which projects are good
So if a donor wants to give eg $10m-$100m today, it’s actually not very clear how to do that, or how Manifund could help facilitate this. Let’s fix this!
Criteria: Extremely great and highly regarded within AIS circles; could each use $1m of additional funding well; deserve more recognition
