Comment by Michael Kratsios
U.S. OSTP Director
The US totally rejects all efforts by international bodies to assert centralized control and global governance of AI. Ideological fixations on social equity, climate catastrophism, and so-called existential risk are dangers to progress and obstacles to responsibly harnessing this tech.

Quote attributed to Michael Kratsios (US OSTP Director, 2025): "The US totally rejects all efforts by international bodies to assert centralized control and global governance of AI. Ideological fixations on social equity, climate catastrophism, and so-called existential risk are dangers to progress and obstacles to responsibly harnessing this tech." The source_url (nbcnews.com) returns HTTP 403, so I could not fetch it directly. Web search confirms the quote verbatim: it matches Kratsios's own X post (x.com/mkratsios47/status/1970961892433961128, ~Sept 2025, tied to his UN General Assembly remarks — consistent with the NBC article's "un-general-assembly" slug and the year 2025). Vote direction "against" on statement 360 ("Establish a UN-led body to oversee compute-intensive AI") is correct: Kratsios explicitly rejects centralized international/UN governance of AI. Attribution, year (2025), and vote alignment all check out. Marking ai_unverifiable only because the source_url blocks automated access; the quote is genuine and accurately attributed.
