Verification History

AI Verified Quote authorship and content verified via web search. Peter S. Park (MIT AI Existential Safety Postdoctoral Fellow) is quoted in IEEE Spectrum's article 'Protesters Decry Meta's Irreversible Proliferation of AI' (Oct 6, 2023), with the exact wording 'Widely releasing the very advanced AI models of the future would be especially problematic, because preventing their misuse would be essentially impossible' and the warning about cyberattacks/election meddling/bioterrorism. Spectrum URL returns 403 to WebFetch but the article is confirmed by beSpacific, LessWrong, EA Forum, and the protest organizers' own materials. 'For' vote on 'Ban open source AI models capable of creating WMDs' aligns precisely with Park's warning about bioterrorism enabled by open-weight advanced AI. Year was 2024; corrected to 2023 to match the article's actual publication date. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 8d ago
