AI Unverifiable The excerpt is only background about SB 1047 and notes it included third-party auditing; it does not include Nicole Gill’s actual statement or any explicit stance from her.

AI Verified Verified. The exact quoted text appears verbatim on Accountable Tech’s statement page dated 2024: line 39 contains the full first paragraph, and line 40 reads, "Accountable Tech Co-Founder and Executive Director Nicole Gill released the following statement:" This shows the quoted passage is real, appears at the cited URL, and is attributable to Accountable Tech as the organization’s introductory text.

AI Verified Verified. accountabletech.org returned 403 to WebFetch but web search results confirm: (1) the statement exists at the stated URL with the exact opening text quoted ("Today, California Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed... SB 1047... including requiring pre-deployment safety testing and third-party auditing"); (2) attribution to Nicole Gill, Accountable Tech Co-Founder and Executive Director, is confirmed by search results; (3) the veto occurred September 29-30, 2024 (year matches); (4) Accountable Tech actively campaigned for SB 1047. Vote "for" on "Mandate third-party audits for major AI systems" perfectly aligns with the statement decrying the loss of SB 1047's third-party audit requirement. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
