Yeah I don’t know whether/when grants or prizes are better, or exactly what the optimal initial scale is, although presumably you would want to go beyond $22k/yr once it has been demonstrated to work. One would also want to look at why previous prizes, such as Paul’s alignment prizes didn’t work out.
I guess I would be granting to individuals similar to those who “I’ve enjoyed reading” according to the post above. I also wonder if someone could get Zach Weinersmith to do something EA, given how much related stuff he’s already done previously.
