Verification History

AI Unverifiable The source URL (sciencebusiness.net) and the official EC speech PDF both returned HTTP 403 Forbidden and could not be fetched. However, the quote is independently confirmed via multiple web search results: Ursula von der Leyen stated at the 2025 AI Action Summit in Paris that CERN "allows the best and the brightest minds in the world to work together" and that she wants "the same to happen in our AI gigafactories." Vote alignment is correct (against "Restrict the CERN for AI initiative to EU member states" - she explicitly invokes "minds in the world" collaboration, the opposite of EU-only restriction). Year is 2025, current. Marking ai_unverifiable since source URLs block AI fetching. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 4d ago
