A second retroactive prize round lands, with over $60,000 planned for December; whether it becomes routine is what to watch.

The Corrigibility Research Fund announced an additional $48,000 on September 30, rewarding roughly two dozen researchers across about a dozen teams working on corrigibility — making AI systems accept human correction.
Fund manager Max Harms handed out $27,000 in a first round in July and plans to disburse more than $60,000 in December. The largest single award, $14,000, went to Rubi Hudson's paper on a corrigibility transformation.
The selection is one person's judgment; Harms himself calls the awards ad hoc and says the purse sizes should not be taken too seriously, and he deliberately passed over established figures such as Yudkowsky and Christiano.
