Sponsored projects

Beneficial AI in practice.

BGI Nexus sponsored projects that explore how AI can serve people and the planet in practice. We funded nine projects building beneficial AI across health, climate, accessibility, governance, agriculture, and ecological knowledge.

Community-selected projects, real-world impact.

The BGI Nexus community came together to fund nine beneficial AI projects, deploying support to teams working on practical public-good applications.

From social and environmental solutions to safer and more compassionate AI systems, each project contributes to a more democratic ecosystem of innovation that benefits people, societies, and the biosphere.
