The quote clearly rejects extreme doomsday characterizations of AI—'not a terminator' and 'not a harbinger of... dystopia'—which implies opposition to the claim that AI poses an existential threat to humanity.

The quote explicitly rejects a catastrophic framing: AI is "not a terminator" and "not a harbinger of ... dystopia," which opposes the claim that it is an existential threat to humanity.

Verified. The Kasparov.com page reproducing the PCMag interview from 2019 attributes the statement to Garry Kasparov, and the text appears verbatim in his answer: “AI is not a magic wand, but it is not a terminator. It’s not a harbinger of utopia or dystopia.” ([kasparov.com](https://www.kasparov.com/garry-kasparov-says-ai-can-make-us-more-human-pcmag-interview-march-20th-2019/))
