This is a linkpost to https://www.macfound.org/press/press-releases/humanity-ai-commits-500-million-to-build-a-people-centered-future-for-ai

It seems not focused on catastrophic risks going by the press release, but doesn't clearly exclude them and probably sensitive to near future current events, so I could imagine some people might get funding for really interesting democracy protection, security, or other work.

I know that @Garrison is working with Omidyar (one of the foundations listed here). Does anyone know of other work aligned with EA priorities coming out of these foundations? This is potentially very exciting.
