Verification History

AI Verified Verified via web search (URL returns 403 to WebFetch). The R Street Institute article 'Regulators are misguided in efforts to restrict open-source AI' exists at the source_url and is attributed to Adam Thierer (senior fellow at R Street). The quoted text matches what search results confirm Thierer wrote in the July 2024 article. Year 2024 is accurate. Vote 'against' on 'Open-source AI is more dangerous than closed-source AI' is correctly aligned with the quote, which argues open-source AI is NOT dangerous because transparency is not dangerous. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 2d ago
