Funding and Volunteering So Far

Since our start in July 2024, we have operated, exclusively based on the volunteer work of 25 exceptional AI and governance experts, for 1700 hours of volunteering - including by the only full-time staff, the Coalition’s Coordinator, Rufo Guerreschi.

In early February, we onboarded our first significant Donor Partner via a $60,000 grant donation by the Survival and Flourishing Fund (SFF). SFF is the second largest donor in AI safety governance, and it is funded by Jaan Tallinn, founder of Kazaa and Skype and cofounder of the Future of Humanity Institute. For more, read our funding and volunteering webpage.

Why Join Us as a Donor Partner?

Current initiatives by states and NGOs to govern AI internationally are far from bold, timely, effective and inclusive enough to tackle the immense and urgent risks AI poses to human safety and the unaccountable concentration of power and wealth. 

While time is running out, we can still prevail and realize AI's astounding opportunities, but only if a critical mass of states comes together skillfully like never before.

An exceptionally bold and skillful initiative is needed, akin to the 1946 Baruch Plan for nuclear technologies. Only an extraordinarily effective and timely treaty-making process, proven by history, can give us any chance to arrive at a suitable treaty.

While success is highly uncertain given the scale of the challenge, most heads of state and the general public are likely to realize and publicly recognize the scale of what is needed in the following months, as they did in the months before the Baruch Plan was presented.

This we argue in our Open Call of the Coalition for a Baruch Plan, its Executive Summary webpage and its 90-page Case paper, written by two co-authors and 23 exceptional contributors, that we launched last December 18th.

We are very proud that our impressive progress has been made possible entirely by the volunteer effort of our six founding partners and over 25 exceptional team members and advisors for over 1,700 hours of volunteer work.

Our unique strategy and exceptional team, along with our proven dedication and ability to catalyze and leverage expert pro bono work, give us a better chance than any other organization to make a substantial or radical positive impact on the course of events.

Funding Needs

While we have detailed plans on how to use up to $1,500,000 to execute our 2025-2027 roadmap optimally, even a few tens of thousands of dollars would make a real difference, given our extreme frugality and ability to catalyze volunteer work by exceptional experts, honed over many years. These would help us:

  1. Develop additional convincing, detailed, ad-hoc text and video content for key AI advisors of President Xi and President Trump, heads of state of aligned or influential countries, heads of their relevant security agencies and departments, and leading AI labs.

  2. Reach out and engage them via our network, email, open letters, and hybrid events in Geneva and elsewhere to convince them of the immense win-wins for all and specific advantages for their country resulting from joining as early state leaders of a suitable treaty-making process for AI.

  3. Expand our network to improve our ability to engage key persons, departments, agencies, and state missions with the UN in Geneva and New York.

  4. Enlarge our team of advisors, volunteers, and partners to expand our targeted advocacy's scope, authority, and reach.

  5. Expand upon our 90-page Case for a Coalition for a Baruch Plan for AI (v.1) PDF to conduct more extensive research and produce more detailed treaty-making and policy proposals.

Funding Neutrality

To minimize the undue influence of funding sources on the Coalition activities, we aim to maximize the geopolitical diversity of funders and maximize the chance of receiving funding for our activities for at least 18 months.
