We are likely to eventually need something like an IAEA for superintelligence efforts; any effort above a certain capability (or resources like compute) threshold will need to be subject to an international authority that can inspect systems, require audits, test for compliance with safety standards, place restrictions on degrees of deployment and levels of security, etc. But the governance of the most powerful systems, as well as decisions regarding their deployment, must have strong public oversight. We believe people around the world should democratically decide on the bounds and defaults for AI systems.Disputed source (2023)

The wording is real on the cited OpenAI post, but the stored quote is not a single continuous verbatim passage: the first paragraph appears in the “A starting point” section, while the second appears later in “Public input and potential,” with intervening text omitted, so it should at least be marked with an omission such as [...]. It is also not correctly attributable to the single author “OpenAI,” because the page lists three individual authors: Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Ilya Sutskever. The post is dated May 22, 2023, and the supplied /blog/ URL redirects to the canonical /index/ page. ([openai.com](https://openai.com/blog/governance-of-superintelligence))

The wording is real on the OpenAI page dated May 22, 2023: the first paragraph appears in the article "Governance of superintelligence," and the second paragraph appears later in the same article. However, that page credits the article to Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Ilya Sutskever—not to "OpenAI"—and the submitted text combines non-adjacent passages without marking the omission, so the attribution/verbatim presentation is not strictly correct.

Source URL (openai.com 'Governance of superintelligence', May 22, 2023, by Altman/Brockman/Sutskever) returns 403 to WebFetch but Google search confirms the verbatim text of both paragraphs in the quote ('IAEA for superintelligence efforts', 'above a certain capability (or resources like compute) threshold', 'strong public oversight', 'democratically decide on the bounds and defaults for AI systems'). Author attribution to OpenAI as the institutional source is correct. Year 2023 matches the publication date and reflects OpenAI's foundational governance position — consistent with their continued public stance through 2025-2026. Vote 'against' on statement #379 ('Ban superintelligence development until safety consensus is reached') is correctly aligned: the OpenAI post explicitly advocates oversight, audits, and democratic governance to enable continued development, not a ban. Verified.
