Is Kelsey an OpenPhil grantee or employee? Future Perfect never listed OpenPhil as one of its funders, so I am a bit surprised. Possibly Kelsey received some other OP grants, but I had a bit of a sense Kelsey and Future Perfect more general cared about having financial independence from OP.
Relatedly, is Eric Neyman an Open Phil grantee or employee? I thought ARC was not being funded by OP either. Again, maybe he is a grantee for other reasons.
Oops, my colleague checked again and the Future Perfect inclusions (Keley and Sigal) are indeed a mistake; OP hasn’t funded Future Perfect. Thanks for the correction. (Though see e.g. this similar critical tweet from OP grantee Matt Reardon.)
Re: Eric Neyman. We’ve funded ARC before and would do so again depending on RFMF/etc.
You’re welcome, and makes sense. And yeah, I knew there was a period where ARC avoided getting OP funding for COI reasons, so I was extrapolating from that to not having received funding at all, but it does seem like OP had still funded ARC back in 2022.
Thanks! This does seem helpful.
