Verified quote by Bruce A. Scott, MD (then-AMA President). The quote "Medical decisions must be made by physicians and their patients without interference from unregulated and unsupervised AI technology." is confirmed via web search as attributed to Scott in an AMA press release dated February 24, 2025, titled "Physicians concerned AI increases prior authorization denials." The source URL (ama-assn.org) blocked direct fetching (403), but web search results confirm the exact attribution. Year (2025) is correctly set. The quote clearly expresses support for restricting autonomous AI in fiduciary-sensitive medical decision-making, aligning with the "for" vote on statement 440 ("Regulated industries should prohibit AI from making autonomous decisions where fiduciary duty applies"). Author biography (AMA President, practicing urologist) is accurate. All checks pass.

Quote verified via WebSearch (AMA source URL returned 403 on WebFetch but content independently confirmed in search results). The exact statement "Medical decisions must be made by physicians and their patients without interference from unregulated and unsupervised AI technology" was made by AMA President Bruce A. Scott, M.D., in an AMA press release dated Feb 24, 2025, concerning physicians' concerns about health insurers using AI to increase prior authorization denials. Year updated from null to 2025. The vote "for" correctly aligns with the statement "Regulated industries should prohibit AI from making autonomous decisions where fiduciary duty applies" - the quote directly supports prohibiting unsupervised AI from interfering in fiduciary medical decisions between physicians and patients. Source URL (ama-assn.org press center) matches the attributed release. Relevancy high: medicine is a regulated industry with fiduciary duty and the quote explicitly rejects AI interference with professional judgment.
