Comment by Max Tegmark

I really empathize for them, frankly, because they’re so stuck in this race to the bottom that they just feel an irresistible pressure to keep going and not get overtaken by the other guy. I think that’s why it’s so important to stigmatize the race to superintelligence, to the point where the U.S. government just steps in.

AI Verified Verified. NBC Bay Area’s Oct. 21, 2025 AP article contains these two sentences and attributes them to Max Tegmark; AP’s original version shows the same wording at lines 1876-1877. The story inserts "Tegmark said" between the two quoted sentences, but the quoted words themselves match the submitted text.
