Humanity AI has launched a $10 million grant program as part of a $500 million initiative to broaden community involvement in AI development and governance. This effort aims to address the uneven economic impact of generative AI highlighted by the International Labour Organization and World Bank. The five-year program, initiated by 10 US philanthropies, targets workers, educators, artists, and other communities to influence AI's development and use.
The $10 million open call, launched on September 10, invites US-based nonprofits to apply for grants ranging from $75,000 to $1 million. Projects in education, labor and the economy, or the humanities, arts and culture are eligible. While the program focuses on the US, its impact extends globally as it seeks to close infrastructure gaps and ensure meaningful community influence over AI systems.
