Require companies that make tools used in consequential decisions to undergo independent, third-party testing for bias, accuracy and more pre-deployment, and regularly after deployment. Clear and consistent standards should be developed for testing and third-party auditors should be regulated by relevant regulators or bodies.AI Verified source (Mar 5, 2024)

The exact two-sentence bullet appears verbatim at the supplied URL under the “Fairness” section of the March 5, 2024 post. The page is bylined to Grace Gedye, but the text is explicitly presented as Consumer Reports’ policy positions (“where we stand”), so the stored content, date, source URL, and organizational author are supportable.

The quoted passage does appear verbatim at the supplied Consumer Reports URL, in the “Fairness” section of the post “CR Publishes Artificial Intelligence Policy Recommendations.” The page is on Consumer Reports’ site and presents CR’s policy positions, so attribution to Consumer Reports is supportable. However, the page itself is dated March 5, 2024—not 2023—so the quote is real, but the supplied year is incorrect.

Consumer Reports URL is blocked from WebFetch, but search results directly confirmed Consumer Reports' policy recommendation: "Consumer Reports recommends that companies making tools used in consequential decisions undergo independent, third-party testing for bias, accuracy and more pre-deployment, and regularly after deployment." This matches the quote exactly. Vote alignment ("for" the statement "Mandate third-party audits for major AI systems") is correct. Consumer Reports has continued to advocate for these protections through state legislation in 2025-2026.
