The premise
AI can draft a clean supplemental funding request that frames the unanticipated cost in the language program officers expect.
What AI does well here

- Lay out cost basis with quotes and prior-art comparisons
- Draft contingency language if the supplement is partially funded
What AI cannot do
- Approve the supplement
- Negotiate with the program officer
- Substitute for the PI's scientific judgment on the request
