I would surmise to say any organization/government/species that is involved funded the project in one way or another either to make money off of or for personal gains. I could see many private organizations and groups pouring resources into such an ambiguous project. Hell if I lived in that time period and was a trilionaire I'd fund a portion of it just to see results or for the advancement of our civilization..or for the hell of it.

She wouldn't have to be Cerberus for Cerberus to be involved, though. Cerberus backers could've provided funding and padded the Nexus or Hyperion staff with a cell to create a new branch of Cerberus in Andromeda to ensure that humanity thrives above all others. ........Maybe the reason the ship arrives late.

Experience has taught me that if it's expensive, ahead of current technology and out of the public eye, it's usually Cerberus. Depends on how many employees it's killed

It's most likely that Cerberus tried to program the aliens' cryopods to eject two hundred years after leaving MW, but screwed up and accidentally ejected their own pods.

Either in Andromeda or via a retcon in the inevitable sequel that takes away from my desire to see another milky way game before 2074.

Technically it was asked if the AI's benefactors were Cerberus' affiliated not those who themselves are directly involved in the AI -so that possibility still exists.

And if there was a twinge of Cerberus in anything related to Ai, they're not going to reveal it in a tweet, just like we're not really going to find out if anyone involved in the heading of Ai knew about the Reapers and pushed the launch out in 10 years as a response to the threat until we play the game.

Shinobi, the famous insider who reveals things, also said that there will be no Cerberus in Mass Effect: Andromeda. As for the underlined, we actually do know that. On Twitter Bioware said that while most people in AI have no knowledge of the Reapers, some of the higher ups do and that will be revealed somewhere in the game.

Cerberus... pffftttt...
I really hope not.
I really, really, reeeaally hope not, pls Bioware, pls Mac...
As yto your question its funny people keep throwing out some known characters like the Ashlands etc. Yeah its not like theres a huge number of other rich humans in the galaxy, not to mention asari, salarians, turians, volus...
I wouldnt be surprised if it was some sort of joined human-asari-volus venture or some thing, and the turians and salarians later joined and pooled some of their resources too. Theres always people with money and crazy visions, as we have seen.

Bioware confirmed Cerberus won't be involved in the game. Lets hope your right, but as i recall they one time also "confirmerd" before ME2 that "Archangel was not Garrus" or that the "endings are not simple A, B, C choice"... so... Bioware can say a lot of things and do quite the other.

While it's true, here mostly matters precedent of infinite resources appearing out of nowhere. If Cerberus turned from bunch of crazies into quasi-state with army, fleet, production and research, then nothing stops some fridge manufacturer from doing the same. I would surmise to say any organization/government/species that is involved funded the project in one way or another either to make money off of Make money from AI? Seriously?

That will probably be in the sequel. A new initiative funded by the manufacturer who sold 20,000+ fridges to the AI.

Hey, Tempest is a stealth vessel. Meaning it probably has the Tantalus drive.
Hell, ODSY could very well be a derivative of Tantalus.
The only non-Alliance, non-Hiearchy faction in the universe that has gotten it's hands on the Tantalus drive and knows how to make one is Cerberus.

As with any project, the ones with the ideas search for investors in the private and public sector. It seems like Jien Garson has found enough to fund the Andromeda Initiative. Why? That is the question we have no answer for yet.

I will be happy if Cerberus isn't involved. I've had enough of them in the previous 3 games. I won't mind hearing them in passing, but I don't want them physically in Andromeda. I'm ok if they leave the benefactors as vague super rich people and/or companies.
