We’ve just launched a regrants program inspired by the Future Fund! I think the FF team’s June 2022 writeup best captured the benefits of the system, but I don’t think anyone has posted an analysis since then—which we’re (naturally) very interested in.
Looking through FF’s database of past regrants, I was impressed by several regrants which were early to identify work I would describe later as quite good. Examples include the Future Forum, Dwarkesh Patel, and Quantified Intuitions/Sage. Of course, we (Manifold Markets) ourselves were the recipient of a $1m regrant which was the anchor for our seed round, so we’re fairly biased here.
