Verification History

AI Verified Verified via web search. Mark Surman, president of Mozilla Foundation, made these comments in a Euronews interview (Feb 21, 2025) titled "How Europe could 'leap ahead' in the global AI race". The exact wording — "incent researchers to work together and you get quite naturally this idea of the CERN for AI" — is confirmed in search results. The "for" vote on "Create a global institute for AI, similar to CERN" is consistent: Surman explicitly advocates this CERN-for-AI concept, proposing pooling Swiss, Canadian, Japanese, Indian and European research compute.
