Statement relation comments

AI Verified The quote directly addresses the possibility of AI being conscious: saying the idea of conscious AI is "not outlandish" clearly supports the statement that AI might become conscious. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 14d ago

AI Verified Verified. The provided IAI URL resolves to a January 5, 2023 interview article, “Big tech doesn’t want AI to become conscious,” featuring Susan Schneider. In the body text, the exact sentence “The idea of conscious AI is not outlandish.” appears verbatim immediately after the interviewer’s question, so it is correctly attributable to Schneider as her quoted response.
