AI Labs Pool $12.5 Million to Secure the Open-Source Software They All Depend On

Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and others are funding Linux Foundation security grants — a rare moment of cooperation from companies that compete on everything else.

Anthropic announced a donation to the Linux Foundation's open-source security initiatives, joining a $12.5 million pool funded by major AI labs. As @AnthropicAI noted, "the open source ecosystem underpins nearly every software system" and securing it is essential as AI capabilities grow. The funding flows through the AlphaOmega project and OpenSSF (Open Source Security Foundation).
