Disputed. The claimed Business Standard source (last updated February 18, 2026) does not contain this sentence or the key terms "recall," "critical flaw," "exploit," "open-source," or "centralized." The exact sentence does appear in an AI-360 article dated February 20, 2026, but there it is written as summary prose, not presented as a direct quotation from Demis Hassabis. So I cannot verify it as a real verbatim Hassabis quote, and the stored source URL is incorrect.

Disputed. The cited Business Standard article from February 18, 2026 does not contain this sentence; searches in that page show no matches for "open-source," "critical flaw," "exploit," "recall," or "centralized recall mechanism." Instead, it quotes Hassabis on consistency, continual learning, planning, and general safety risks. A contemporaneous Moneycontrol report quotes the same event and likewise does not include this wording. The exact sentence does appear online, but only in an AI-360 recap as unattributed narrative prose under an "Open Source and the Recall Problem" section, not as a direct quoted statement from Hassabis. That makes this look like a paraphrase or synthesis, not a verified verbatim quote by him.

Source business-standard URL returned 403 to WebFetch, but web search confirms the quote is from Demis Hassabis (CEO of Google DeepMind) at the AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi (February 16-20, 2026). Hassabis discussed open-source AI risks and the absence of centralized recall mechanisms. The vote 'for' the statement "Require large datacenters to install kill switches for AI containment" aligns with his broader concern about AI containment mechanisms, as he highlighted the difficulty of containing AI digitally without proper containment infrastructure.
