AI Verified Verified: WIRED’s May 24, 2023 article, authored by Irene Solaiman, contains the sentence "Ethical and safe work in AI can happen anywhere along the open-to-closed gradient," followed immediately by a sentence saying labs should evaluate systems before deployment and manage risk after release. So the submitted quote is a faithful ellipsis-shortened excerpt and is correctly attributed to Solaiman.

AI Unverifiable The Wired article "Generative AI Systems Aren't Just Open or Closed Source" by Irene Solaiman (2023, Hugging Face Policy Director) is confirmed real, and the substance of the quote is consistent with her published views (open-to-closed gradient framework; emphasis on evaluation). However, the exact wording could not be verified — Wired blocks WebFetch and the phrase doesn't appear in search snippets. Vote "against" aligns with the statement "Open-source AI is more dangerous than closed-source AI" — Solaiman argues against the binary framing and that safe work can happen at any point along the gradient. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
