Hmm, I think both Open AI and MIRI are recruiting from academic institutions, but I don’t think there is any institution that is offering money to researchers who want to do independent research. I actually think this could be a pretty good idea.
I think that’s only barely true. The closest thing might be the LTF-Fund and BERI. MIRI has done a bit of support of independent researchers in their work on MIRI-X and operational support for AI Impacts, but neither of those two projects is trying to directly incentivize independent research.
I think EA-Grants has given away some money for research, but not super much and I don’t really anything for AI-Alignment related things.

Well, I think there are institutions offering money to independent researchers, just not actively seeking them out and recruiting as such.
