Comment by Miles Brundage

AI policy researcher; founder of AVERI (AI Verification Initiative); former OpenAI Head of Policy Research
A bit more verbosely, we are trying to envision, enable, and incentivize frontier AI auditing, defined as rigorous third-party verification of frontier AI developers’ safety and security claims, and evaluation of their systems and practices against relevant standards, based on deep, secure access to non-public information.

AI Verified Verified. The exact sentence appears verbatim in the Substack post “The Launch of AVERI,” authored by Miles Brundage, and the page is dated Jan 15, 2026. The stored source URL matches the page containing the quote. ([milesbrundage.substack.com](https://milesbrundage.substack.com/p/the-launch-of-averi)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 17d ago
Disputed The source URL is a Jan. 15, 2026 Substack post by Miles Brundage, and it contains a near-match but not the exact submitted wording: the line begins "A bit more verbosely, we are trying ..." before the rest of the passage, so the provided quote omits words and changes the initial lowercase "we" to "We." Attribution and source are correct, but the quote is not verbatim as written.

AI Verified Checked the quote attributed to Miles Brundage (2026) on the statement "Mandate third-party audits for major AI systems" (vote: null/none recorded). The source_url (milesbrundage.substack.com/p/the-launch-of-averi) returned HTTP 403 and could not be fetched directly, but web search confirmed the quote verbatim — it is AVERI's definition of "frontier AI auditing," from Brundage's January 2026 launch of AVERI (the AI Verification and Evaluation Research Institute), corroborated by AVERI's site, an arXiv paper, and Fortune coverage. Author attribution correct, year (2026) current, and the quote is highly relevant to third-party AI auditing. Note: no vote is associated with this opinion, so there is no vote direction to verify or correct. The quote strongly supports third-party AI auditing in general (Brundage advocates the practice; whether he endorses a legal government mandate specifically is not stated in this quote). Source URL is the primary source (the author's own post). · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
