The quote directly supports the statement: it says AGI will be built by 27/28, that an "intelligence explosion" will be underway by 28/29, and that by 2030 "we will have summoned superintelligence." That clearly expresses the author's view that AGI could lead to superintelligence quickly.

The quote clearly supports it: after "build[ing] AGI, and build it fast," the author says "by 28/29 the intelligence explosion will be underway; by 2030, we will have summoned superintelligence."

Confirmed authentic. The quoted passages appear verbatim on the cited source page, including: "As the race to AGI intensifies... Somewhere in a SCIF, the endgame will be on," then later "And so by 27/28, the endgame will be on... by 2030, we will have summoned superintelligence," and "Whoever they put in charge of The Project... put the American economy on wartime footing..." The source URL contains the text, and the series introduction identifies the work as by Leopold Aschenbrenner, dated June 2024; the site’s About page also names the author as Leopold Aschenbrenner.

Disputed
The official source attributes the material to Leopold Aschenbrenner in the June 2024 series page, and the essay "IV. The Project" contains the opening lines and, much later, the endgame/The Project passage. But the submitted block is not one exact verbatim passage from the source: the opening excerpt continues with another sentence in the original, and there is substantial unmarked intervening text before the later excerpt, so this is a stitched/altered excerpt rather than an exact quotation.

AI Unverifiable
Quote attributed to Leopold Aschenbrenner from "Situational Awareness: The Decade Ahead" (June 2024), Part IV "The Project". WebFetch on situational-awareness.ai source URL returned HTTP 403. Web search confirms verbatim phrases including "As the race to AGI intensifies, the national security state will get involved. The USG will wake from its slumber, and by 27/28 we'll get some form of government AGI project. No startup can handle superintelligence" attributed to Aschenbrenner's essay. Vote "for" "Build artificial general intelligence" correctly aligns with Aschenbrenner's pro-AGI / pro-US-government-AGI-project advocacy. Marking ai_unverifiable due to source URL blocking.
