Yeah, I think we need multiple features and maybe not in the same place. I think a CERN is definitely something we need. I mean, I think we need to ensure that more of the development happens in a way that there is oversight over it and governments participate in it rather than just in the private sector. [...] I see a CERN-like collaboration that doesn't maybe have to be in a same physical location [...] But I do think you want that to set up that kind of international infrastructure.

Cannot fetch zencastr.com (podcast hosting) directly - 403 Forbidden. The specific quote text doesn't appear in web search results. However, the content is highly consistent with Mark Brakel's documented role and positions: he is FLI's Global Director of Policy and has advocated for international AI governance institutions, government oversight (suggesting NIST in the US), and CERN-like research institutions. The casual conversational style matches a podcast interview format. The vote "for" the statement "Grant member states majority governance control in the CERN for AI" aligns with FLI's policy of "global institutions for safe AI" and government-led oversight. Marking as ai_unverifiable since I cannot directly confirm the exact wording from the podcast source.
