Ada Lovelace Institute researcher
Proponents of a CERN-like body for AI have called for its creation as a way to build safer AI systems, enable more international coordination in AI development, and reduce dependencies on private industry labs for the development of safe and ethical AI systems. Rather than creating its own AI systems, some argue, a CERN-like institution could focus specifically on research into AI safety. Some advocates, such as computer scientist Gary Marcus, also argue that the CERN model could help advance AI safety research beyond the capacity of any one firm or nation. The new institution could bring together top talent under a mission grounded in principles of scientific openness, adherence to a pluralist view of human values (such as the collective goals of the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development), and responsible innovation.AI Verified source (Jun 7, 2024)

The two quoted paragraphs appear verbatim on the Chatham House page for the essay “02 A ‘CERN for AI’ – what might an international AI research organization address?”, which is explicitly bylined to Elliot Jones. That page shows the research paper as published on 7 June 2024 (and updated on 10 June 2024), so the stored author, date, source URL, and quote text all match the source.

Disputed
The passage is real and appears verbatim in the cited 2024 Chatham House publication: the HTML page shows the same wording in the 'Strengths of a CERN for AI' section, and the PDF version reproduces it on p. 15. But the specific chapter '02 A ‘CERN for AI’ – what might an international AI research organization address?' is credited to Elliot Jones, so attributing the quote to 'Chatham House' as the author is not exact.

AI Unverifiable
Source URL https://www.chathamhouse.org/2024/06/artificial-intelligence-and-challenge-global-governance/02-cern-ai-what-might-international returns HTTP 403 Forbidden when accessed via WebFetch, so I cannot positively confirm the exact wording at the source. Notes for human reviewer: (1) Web search results confirm this Chatham House report (June 2024) discusses a CERN for AI in a section titled "A 'CERN for AI' – what might an international AI research organization address?", and the framing/content of the quote is consistent with that report. (2) The quote is descriptive — it summarizes proponents' arguments rather than stating Chatham House's own institutional position, which makes vote attribution ("against") harder to assess from this passage alone. (3) The "against" vote on "Mandate the CERN for AI to build safe superintelligence" is plausibly defensible because the quote explicitly notes "Rather than creating its own AI systems, some argue, a CERN-like institution could focus specifically on research into AI safety" — i.e., the proponents described favor a safety-research mandate, not a build-superintelligence mandate. Recommend human review to confirm Chatham House's institutional stance and the exact source text.
