OpenAI awards $40.5M to a wide range of nonprofits under new foundation structure

OpenAI is set to award $40.5 million to over 200 nonprofits by the end of the year. This follows an open call for applications in September. It's the first wave of donations since OpenAI rebranded its nonprofit as the OpenAI Foundation in October. The company has committed $25 billion to fund health research and AI resilience. OpenAI promised $50 million in grants in July, with another $9.5 million to be announced soon. The funding is unrestricted, but OpenAI encouraged projects that support AI literacy, civic life, or economic opportunity. More than 3,000 applications were reviewed for this funding round.
