Description
The Pulitzer Center's AI Reporting Grants, part of the AI Accountability Network, support journalists and newsrooms in producing ambitious, nuanced stories about the design, sale, and deployment of artificial intelligence systems worldwide. The program aims to address knowledge gaps in AI reporting, foster multidisciplinary collaboration, and ensure diverse perspectives are represented in coverage of this rapidly evolving field. Grants are awarded to projects that scrutinize the real-world impacts of AI—such as in policing, medicine, social welfare, criminal justice, hiring, and more—especially where these technologies affect equity, human rights, and social outcomes.
