Verified. The quote "AI has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got" is confirmed verbatim as Caitlin Kalinowski's statement upon resigning from OpenAI (March 2026) over the Pentagon deal. WebFetch on the Fortune source returned HTTP 403, but web search positively confirmed the verbatim quote and attribution across multiple outlets (Fortune, TechCrunch, TechRadar, NPR). The Fortune source_url is a legitimate journalistic source reporting the statement (originally posted by Kalinowski on LinkedIn/X). Author attribution correct. Year 2026 current. Statement "Ban autonomous lethal weapons" has no associated vote (vote is null), so no vote-direction check applies; the quote is relevant to the statement as it expresses concern about lethal autonomy without human authorization.
