partial85% confidence

Last checked: 4/9/2026

The amount of $6,070 is confirmed by the source. However, the date cannot be verified from the source text provided. The source shows a Wayback Machine capture date of 2025-12-06, but this is the archive date, not the grant date. The project page does not explicitly state when the grant was awarded (2023-07-23 as claimed in the record). The grantee (Alexander Bistagne) and funder (Manifund) are both confirmed. The name 'Alignment Is Hard' is confirmed. Since the critical date field cannot be verified from the source, the record is only partially confirmed.
