AI Verified The exact 25-word excerpt you provided appears verbatim as the end of a longer sentence in the IndUS Business Journal article dated June 5, 2023, and that article attributes the statement to Max Tegmark (“he noted”). Business Standard also reproduces the same wording and attribution in a syndicated June 5, 2023 report, which supports that the quote is real and correctly attributed.

AI Verified Verified via web search. Multiple news sources (Science Times, Siasat, Business Standard, LatestLY, June 2023) quote Max Tegmark verbatim: "What we are warning about now is that if we humans lose control over our society to machines that are much smarter than us, then things can go just as bad for us." Tegmark is correctly identified as a physicist/AI researcher (MIT). Vote "for" aligns with the statement "AI poses an existential threat to humanity." Year 2023 matches.
