With its incredible power comes incredible risk, especially given the speed with which it is being developed and released. [...] We need to build a steering wheel, a brake, and all the other features of a car beyond just a gas pedal.AI Verified source (2026)

Verified. Al Jazeera’s February 15, 2026 article at the supplied URL attributes both parts to Liv Boeree: the sentence about AI’s power/risk appears earlier in the piece, and the later car-controls analogy (steering wheel, brake, gas pedal) is also attributed to her. So the submission is a faithful verbatim composite with an allowed omission ([...]), not a misattribution.

AI Unverifiable
Quote attributed to Liv Boeree (science communicator / CAIS strategic adviser, 2026): AI's "incredible power comes incredible risk, especially given the speed... it is being developed and released," and "We need to build a steering wheel, a brake, and all the other features of a car beyond just a gas pedal." The source_url (aljazeera.com, 15 Feb 2026, "Why are experts sounding the alarm on AI risks") is the correct primary source but returns HTTP 403 to WebFetch. Web search corroborated the quote VERBATIM, attributing it to Boeree (CAIS adviser) in this exact Al Jazeera article: "We need to build a steering wheel, a brake, and all the other features of a car beyond just a gas pedal so that we can successfully navigate the narrow path ahead," with her point that governments should provide these regulatory "features." Vote 'for' on statement #386 ("Require AI labs to publish safety evaluations before deploying frontier models") aligns directionally with her call for safety controls/regulatory brakes on frontier AI. Marking ai_unverifiable only because the source page could not be fetched directly; corroboration is verbatim.
