AI Verified The EconTalk transcript for the December 1, 2014 episode identifies Nick Bostrom as the guest and contains the passage, "But at this point you open up a huge vulnerability-- ... because humans are not secure systems." The omitted words are Russ Roberts’s interjection ("An enormous vulnerability--") plus speaker labels, so the excerpt is a faithful omission and is correctly attributed to Bostrom.
