Thanks to everyone who participated in ACX Grants, whether as an applicant, an evaluator, or a funder.

The best part of ACX Grants is telling the winners they won, which I\u2019ll do in a moment. The worst part of ACX Grants is telling the non-winners they didn\u2019t win. If I wasn\u2019t able to give you a grant, it doesn\u2019t mean I hate your project. Sometimes I couldn\u2019t find the right evaluator to confirm that you were legit. Sometimes I sent your project to foundations or VCs who I thought it would be a better match for, or wanted to leave it as a test case for the impact market. Most of the time, I just didn\u2019t have enough money1, and I spent what I had according to my own imperfect priorities.

(In particular, I wasn\u2019t able to fully evaluate several AI alignment grants and had to pass on them; if this is you, consider applying to OpenAI\u2019s Superalignment Fast Grants before February 18.)

If your name is below, you should have received an email with further information. If you didn\u2019t, email me at scott@slatestarcodex.com, and include the phrase \u201cthis is a genuine non-spam message\u201d in the text. Unless my email specifically mentioned you as an exception, Manifund will be handling payments and you\u2019ll hear from them soon.

This year\u2019s winners are:
