Source URL (news.un.org/en/story/2026/04/1167361) returned 403 Forbidden. Web search confirms the UN News article from April 2026 about Hinton's statements at the 2026 Digital World Conference in Geneva. Multiple sources (TechXplore, community newspapers) confirm Hinton stated "We don't know whether we can co-exist with super intelligent AI." He also warned about the urgency of solving the control problem. Vote "against" (AI alignment is solvable) is correct - Hinton expresses uncertainty about whether alignment/coexistence with superintelligent AI is even possible. Year 2026 is correct.
