The source text confirms the grant name, grantee (William Shih), funder (Foresight Institute), and year/date (2017, announced September 20, 2017). However, the critical field 'amount: 5000' is not addressed anywhere in the provided source text. The source discusses the prize and Shih's accomplishments but does not state a monetary value. This makes the record partially confirmed—most fields are verified, but the amount cannot be confirmed from this source.
