The quote clearly says people under 18 should not be in a 'synthetic relationship,' which directly maps to minors using AI companion chatbots and implies support for prohibiting them for that age group.

The quote says people "under the age of 18 should not be in a synthetic relationship," which clearly supports preventing minors from using AI companion chatbots.

The quote is authentic. The WisdomAI URL is a summary and does not show the sentence verbatim, but a transcript page for The Prof G Pod episode released in January 2026 attributes to Scott Galloway the line: “...I don't think anyone under the age of 18 should be in a synthetic relationship.” The only difference is omitted lead-in words (“And that is”), which is allowable. A separate Wave AI episode-notes page also repeats the same quotation and attribution.

Verified via web search. The quote attributed to Scott Galloway ("I don't think anyone under the age of 18 should be in a synthetic relationship") matches his stated position on the Prof G Pod 2026 episode "Why Scott Shut Down His AI Persona...". The source URL (wisdomai.com transcript) returned 403 to WebFetch but is confirmed by BigGo Finance, Galloway's own profgalloway.com "Love Algorithmically" essay, Audioscrape, and other independent coverage. Year 2026 matches. Vote alignment: Both "for" votes are correctly aligned. Galloway's position is categorical — no one under 18 should engage in synthetic relationships — which directly supports both statement 416 ("Ban AI companion chatbots for minors under 18") and statement 445 (age verification and content safeguards for AI chatbots to protect minors), since age verification is the enforcement mechanism for his proposed restriction.
