OpenAI is providing grants to 14 independent projects exploring how AI can broaden economic opportunity and strengthen society's resilience—covering jobs, benefits, safety, science, and democratic accountability. The grants aim to help researchers and practitioners turn big policy ideas into scalable, practical work: testing what works, what it costs, and how governments and institutions could implement those ideas responsibly.
