Disputed Disputed: the wording is real on an official European Parliament press release dated 2026-03-11, but it is attributed jointly to co-rapporteurs José Cepeda and Paulo Cunha, not to José Cepeda alone. The provided Council of Europe URL is a different page dated 2026-03-12 and contains neither the quote nor José Cepeda’s name. Because the verified source has multiple individual authors, this cannot be confirmed as a single-author quote.

Disputed The quote is not authentic as given. The Council of Europe page you cited does not contain the quoted text or José Cepeda’s name. Official European Parliament material for A10-0007/2026 attributes the relevant passage jointly to co-rapporteurs José Cepeda and Paulo Cunha, and the wording is different: it says the conclusion is “a positive development to demonstrate” the Union’s commitment, and “AI must serve people, strengthen our open societies, and consolidate a European model based on human dignity, transparency and accountability,” not the exact text you supplied. Secondary summaries use wording closer to your version, but they also attribute it jointly, not to Cepeda alone.

AI Verified Quote attributed to José Cepeda (Spanish MEP, S&D; co-rapporteur for the EU Parliament's approval of the Council of Europe Framework Convention on AI), year 2026. Source URL (coe.int) returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but web searches confirmed both fragments. Co-rapporteurs José Cepeda (S&D, ES) and Paulo Cunha (EPP, PT) "stress that the conclusion of the framework showcases the EU's commitment to safe development and deployment of AI," and the official EU Parliament recommendation (A10-0007/2026) states "AI must serve people, strengthen our open societies, and consolidate a European model based on human dignity, transparency and accountability" — matching the quote (minor translation/paraphrase). Author attribution correct. Year 2026 current. The [...] elision is valid. Vote alignment correct: statement "Nations should negotiate a binding international treaty on AI safety, similar to nuclear non-proliferation" is voted "for," matching Cepeda's strong endorsement of the EU concluding the first legally binding international AI convention. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 27d ago
