Comment by Max Tegmark

Black-box audits are insufficient for ensuring that an AI is safe and robust. At a minimum, we need white-box audits where the auditor can look inside the AI and learn about how it reasons.

AI Unverifiable I found the exact wording on YouCongress, attributed to Max Tegmark and marked "Verified," and its source link points to the same X status URL you provided. However, I could not independently retrieve the text of that X post itself via web search/open, and I did not find another primary reliable source reproducing the quote verbatim. So there is suggestive evidence, but not enough to fully confirm authenticity.
