I suppose we can say that all other initiatives with the goals for 2026 defined in this post are part of this budget. However, AI Safety Poland is an unusual case.
Given that the rapid development of this project took place mainly in the last ~1.5 months, and the ToC for 2026 isn’t ready yet, there is still some uncertainty around EA Poland’s expected involvement next year. I don’t expect it to be 0, but I doubt it will be higher than 2-4 hours/week.
Directly, our role will probably come down to strategy advisory, promotion of the career 1-1s and events, and maybe assistance with fundraising and entity setup. The AIS Poland team doesn’t fundraise separately, but I think it will change by the end of 2026.
Most of our (EA Poland’s 2 FTEs) direct efforts will go to Funding Diversification, Dobra Kariera, and Community. But then again, some of it will indirectly contribute to AIS Poland’s goals, as 80 000 Godzin promotes the AI Safety cause area and the AI Safety Poland initiative. Our career 1-1s attract people interested in this cause area who didn’t know about AI Safety Poland before. The same goes for Community-related goals. It’s all synergistic.
The total budget for 2026 is $72.5k, and that’s: 2 FTEs, taxes, compulsory social security, accounting, and software.
Correct, Więcej Dobra fundraises separately.
