The proposed research institution, modeled on the CERN project, would be funded by the international community, in particular the EU, the UK, Canada and Australia. The computing capabilities would be overseen by "experts from the machine learning and supercomputing research community" and "overseen by democratically elected institutions" of the participating countries. The institution would require security measures comparable to those of a biological research laboratory, with multiple levels of security and staffed by internationally recognized experts. Research results would have to be communicated transparently to the scientific community and society.AI Verified source (Apr 9, 2023)

The passage does appear verbatim in the cited article’s body text, but the page credits the article to Matthias Bastian and dates it April 9, 2023, not 2024. So the quote is real, but the supplied attribution metadata is not fully correct. ([the-decoder.com](https://the-decoder.com/laion-urges-open-ai-models-with-continued-rapid-innovation/))

Verified via web search. The quote is from The Decoder's article "LAION urges open AI models with continued rapid innovation" describing LAION's petition for a CERN-modeled AI research institution. Search results confirm verbatim phrases including "modeled on the CERN project, would be funded by the international community, in particular the EU, the UK, Canada and Australia" and the governance/security details. The vote "for" on "Grant member states majority governance control in the CERN for AI" aligns with the quote's emphasis on oversight by "democratically elected institutions of the participating countries."
