The source URL contains the quoted wording verbatim as part of a longer sentence: “When you talk about bad actors, I think it is an incorrect assumption – just because the model is closed-source – that those bad actors don’t have access to it,” and it explicitly attributes the statement to Rodrigo Liang. The article is an SCMP piece published on March 21, 2025. ([scmp.com](https://www.scmp.com/news/china/military/article/3303206/open-source-ai-models-may-be-safer-military-use-experts-say))

Verified via web search (SCMP URL returns 403 to WebFetch). The SCMP article 'Open-source AI models may be safer for military use, experts say' from March 21, 2025 exists at the source_url and contains the exact quote from Rodrigo Liang (co-founder and CEO of SambaNova Systems). Author attribution and year (2025) are correct. Vote 'against' on 'Open-source AI is more dangerous than closed-source AI' is correctly aligned: Liang argues closed-source does not actually protect from bad actors, undermining the premise that open-source is uniquely dangerous.
