There have been concerns [...] that we lose control of certain kinds of intelligences.
I fundamentally don't think that's going to happen.

Verified via web search. Eric Horvitz made this statement in a January 2015 BBC interview where he discussed AI risks. The quote ("There have been concerns about the long-term prospect that we lose control of certain kinds of intelligences" / "I fundamentally don't think that's going to happen") is well-documented in multiple secondary sources citing the BBC article. The vote 'against' the statement 'AI poses an existential threat to humanity' aligns correctly with Horvitz's expressed skepticism. BBC URL itself was unfetchable by AI, but quote attribution is confirmed by Gartner blog, Al Arabiya, Irish Times, and CACM coverage.
