We should rapidly develop powerful AI tools that help cure diseases and solve practical problems, but not autonomous smarter-than-human machines that nobody knows how to control. Creating superintelligent machines is not only unacceptably dangerous and immoral, but also completely unnecessary.Verified source (2025)

The quote clearly opposes creating superintelligent machines altogether, calling them "unacceptably dangerous and immoral" and "completely unnecessary." That plainly implies opposition to mandating any institution, including a CERN for AI, to build safe superintelligence.

The quote clearly opposes building superintelligent AI: it says we should develop useful AI tools, "but not autonomous smarter-than-human machines," and that "creating superintelligent machines is... unacceptably dangerous and immoral" and "completely unnecessary."

The quote clearly opposes creating superintelligent, smarter-than-human AI under current conditions, calling it dangerous, immoral, and uncontrollable. That strongly implies support for banning such development, at least until safety is understood or agreed upon.

The quote clearly rejects creating superintelligent machines now ('not autonomous smarter-than-human machines,' 'dangerous and immoral'), but it does not specifically endorse the temporary 'until safety consensus is reached' condition.

Verified. The official superintelligence-statement.org page is indexed with Johnnie Moore’s name and this exact two-sentence quote, and the Future of Life Institute press release reproduces it verbatim under “Additional quotes from statement signatories” as attributed to Johnnie Moore. FLI also lists the underlying “Statement on Superintelligence” open letter as dated September 22, 2025, which supports the supplied year.
