Verification History

AI Verified Quote verified. Attributed to Andrew Lo, director of the Laboratory for Financial Engineering at MIT Sloan School of Management, from a CNBC interview published April 6, 2026 ("AI has a big problem when it comes to financial advice: MIT professor"). The exact quote "Who's really responsible, and can people really be relying on a product to do this if it's not being backed up by a corporation with a fiduciary duty?" was independently confirmed via WebSearch across multiple corroborating sources (inkl.com, PYMNTS, IBTimes UK, MIT News clip listing, Whatfinger) after the original CNBC URL returned 403 to WebFetch. Year 2026 is current. Vote "for" correctly aligns with Lo's argument that AI lacks fiduciary accountability in regulated financial advice, supporting the statement that regulated industries should prohibit AI autonomous decisions where fiduciary duty applies. Relevancy to statement 440 is strong and direct. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-6 · 19d ago
