I applied for both. Heard back from neither. Mentioned two particular projects when applying, one with 2k stars and 5M monthly downloads, and another with 2M monthly downloads.

  Now I'm wondering what the bar is since even people with millions of users aren't making the cut. I'm orders of magnitude smaller but I signed up too since I had nothing to lose. Didn't get a response, of course.

    Is it possible this is vapour marketing and no projects are actually being selected? Perhaps someone from a project who has heard back can respond here?

      Anthropic released Fable with builtin prompt injection for sabotage purposes. I suppose anything is possible.

I applied for my oss project Filestash which satisfy all their criterias but never heard back despite the project having millions of users, more than 14000 stars on github and representing more work than a single person can cope with

  I doubt considerations are based on need. Filestash is cool, but probably isn't the marquee marketing opportunity they are looking for; it jas to be a household name they can name-drop or place a logo on a marketing page and get instant street-cred "${AI_MODEL}: Used* by the React project in 95% of PRs closed last quarter"

      Not only that, but such sponsorships would also generate new, high-quality end-to-end training data from targeted projects, including work-in-progress edits and prompts which are not present in scraped git histories.

  Same here, 15k stars, 150M downloads and never heard back.

    Same here ~13k stars. Never hever heard back from them. So frustrating. Also applied for Codex Open Source - within 2 days I got confirmation and using it since then. Great Job OpenAI! Shame on you Antrophic for not even sending out a refusal message with the cause.
