We're proud to have supported the research for ProjectEvident.bsky.social 's report, "Funding the Future: Grantmaker Strategies in AI Investment," examining funders approach to grantmaking for #AI implementation among nonprofits. View the full report here: projectevident.org/resource/fundi…

A century ago, automobiles lacked safety features we take for granted. Research, regulation, and investment – including philanthropic support – established safety standards for cars. We believe philanthropy can play a role in advancing AI safety as well: insidephilanthropy.com/home/why-ai-ha…

“Data is noisy — astronomy data especially.” Dr. Jeremy Kubica explains how Schmidt Sciences-supported LINCC Frameworks is developing software to manage the complexity of astronomy data, enabling scientists to work more efficiently. Spacepod @[email protected]: listentospacepod.com/episodes/2025/…

Today we're celebrating #PiDay π 🥧🍕 the mathematical constant that helps make our research possible. π (3.14159...) has helped humanity understand the universe's fundamental patterns, serving as a cornerstone of scientific discovery and mathematical understanding.

Can AI help unravel the complex dance between air, sea, and ice? Using AI, the M²LInES project aims to advance climate modeling by enhancing representations of air-sea-ice dynamics, leading to more reliable climate predictions. Learn more: m2lines.github.io

Calling AI safety researchers: What is the most critical technical AI safety problem in the inference-time compute paradigm? Apply for up to $500K for 12-18-month research projects on this new paradigm. 📅EOIs (up to 500 words) due April 30: schmidtsciences.org/safetyscience/

Turning uncertainty into insight. Scientists are using AI to recognize patterns in vast climate data, extracting clear signals from "cloudy" information. This crucial work helps us better understand our changing world. See how Schmidt Science Fellows are tackling this challenge.
