Statement relation comments

AI Unverifiable The quote discusses a distant and unlikely possibility, but it never identifies the subject as AI or consciousness. Without that explicit context, it cannot be confirmed as addressing the full statement 'AI might become conscious.' · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 19d ago

AI Verified The cited Nautilus article, credited to Anil Seth and published on May 8, 2023, contains this exact passage: “...believe it remains far away and might not be possible at all. But even if unlikely, it is unwise to dismiss the possibility altogether.” The submitted quote is therefore a verbatim excerpt from Seth’s article and is correctly attributed.
