Comment by Francesca Rossi

AI safety is no longer mainly a model issue, but rather a system and deployment issue. [...] Governance has to extend beyond the model lifecycle into system design and management.

AI Verified The stored IBM URL resolves to the article in question, and that page is published on 23 February 2026. In it, IBM explicitly attributes the opening sentence to Francesca Rossi and later gives the governance sentence as another Rossi statement; because the submitted text uses [...] to omit intervening material, the quote is authentic and the stored author, date, and source URL are correct. The article itself is by Sascha Brodsky, but Rossi is clearly the quoted speaker.

Disputed The IBM article published on 23 February 2026 does attribute both sentences to Francesca Rossi, but not as one continuous verbatim quote: the first sentence appears in one quoted passage, and the second appears later in a separate quoted passage after intervening text. I found no reliable source containing the exact combined wording as written, so this is a stitched/materially altered quote rather than a verbatim one.

AI Verified Quote verified via web search (ibm.com returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but search results reproduce the exact wording from IBM's own "What a new global AI safety report means for enterprise" article — the primary source). Francesca Rossi (IBM Global Leader for Responsible AI) is confirmed saying "AI safety is no longer mainly a model issue, but rather a system and deployment issue" and "Governance has to extend beyond the model lifecycle into system design and management." Year 2026 correct, author attribution confirmed. Vote alignment: her "for" vote on "Mandate third-party audits for major AI systems" is defensible — she advocates extending governance into system/deployment, and mandated third-party audits are a deployment-level governance mechanism — though the quote speaks to system-level governance generally rather than to third-party audits specifically. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
