Verified. The World Economic Forum page for António Guterres’ Davos address on January 22, 2025 contains the exact quoted wording as part of a longer sentence, and an official UN statement for the same Davos address matches that wording and attributes it to Guterres.

Verified via web search (WEF URL returns 403 to WebFetch). The Davos 2025 special address by António Guterres (UN Secretary-General) on Jan 22, 2025 at the World Economic Forum contains the quoted phrase identifying 'the climate crisis and the ungoverned expansion of artificial intelligence' as two profound threats that 'threaten to upend life as we know it'. Multiple sources confirm this (UN press release sgsm22528, WEF press release, UN News). Author attribution is correct. Year 2025 is current. Vote 'for' on 'AI poses an existential threat to humanity' is consistent: Guterres explicitly characterized ungoverned AI as threatening to upend life as we know it and pairs it with the climate crisis (a recognized existential threat).
