New AI Nodes + important grant updates!
Exciting new chapter: we are launching two physical hubs – one in Berlin and one in San Francisco! With these nodes, we want to support ambitious researchers and builders who use AI to advance science and safety. The hubs combine grant funding with office and community spaces, programming, and in-house compute to help teams build faster.
The AI Nodes will open in early 2026, and we’re now inviting applications for:
• Grants: Funding, office space, in-house compute (for eligible projects), and invitations to relevant workshops and events.
• Office & event spaces: Free access to our nodes.
• Compute: Free compute for your project.
We are also making important updates to our grants – they will now be connected to the nodes, have an AI-first approach, and monthly deadlines instead of quarterly.
Come shape a future where AI progress remains open, secure, and aligned with human flourishing. Learn more and apply by Dec 31: foresight.org/grants/grants-…
