NoteThe claim references 'Coefficient Giving's Description' with a specific 2023 figure of $46M in AI safety spending. While the source URL is from a LessWrong post about AI safety funding (updated January 2025), the provided excerpt only covers the introduction and past work sections, discussing historical funding estimates from 2017-2020. The excerpt does not reach the section that would likely contain information about specific funders like Coefficient Giving. To verify this claim, the full source text would need to be reviewed, particularly sections discussing individual funders and their 2023 contributions.
