AI Verified The source URL is a Stanford Daily article published on February 15, 2023, and it contains the exact sentence: “My question is, utopia for whom? Who is getting this utopian life that [big tech] is promising [will come from AI]?” The article immediately attributes it to Timnit Gebru with “Gebru said,” so the quote is authentic as cited and correctly attributed.

AI Verified Quote verified verbatim via web search. The exact phrasing "utopia for whom? Who is getting this utopian life that [big tech] is promising [will come from AI]?" is confirmed in the Stanford Daily article cited as source_url. Timnit Gebru is the AI ethics researcher, DAIR founder, and known critic of AGI utopia narratives (she coined TESCREAL with Émile Torres to critique these views). Vote alignment "against" matches the statement "AGI will create abundance" - Gebru is skeptical of these promises. Source URL returned 403 to WebFetch but matches the Stanford Daily article that is the actual primary source. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
