A moratorium and binding international regulation of ASI is, frankly, our only hope, however hard it will be to agree. It will be even harder to enforce, but we have to do it; there is no choice.AI Verified source (Jan 29, 2026)

The quote explicitly endorses 'a moratorium' on ASI and says 'we have to do it,' which clearly supports banning superintelligence development. While it does not use the exact phrase 'until safety consensus is reached,' the call for a temporary halt plus mention of how hard it will be 'to agree' sufficiently implies support for that overall policy.

The quote clearly supports "a moratorium" on ASI and says "we have to do it," but it does not state the specific condition "until safety consensus is reached."

The quote clearly endorses binding international regulation for advanced AI/ASI and says "we have to do it," implying support for nations reaching an enforceable international agreement on AI safety, even though it does not explicitly mention the nuclear non-proliferation model.

The quote clearly favors "binding international regulation of ASI" and says "we have to do it," but it does not explicitly mention a treaty or one "similar to nuclear non-proliferation."

Hansard’s "Superintelligent AI" debate for 29 January 2026 lists the speaker as "Lord Strasburger (LD) [V]" and the supplied URL contains the exact quoted wording in his contribution, so the quote, attribution, date, and source URL all match. ([hansard.parliament.uk](https://hansard.parliament.uk/lords/2026-01-29/debates/848C6617-4CB6-463C-9957-82C53ACA2858/SuperintelligentAI))

Disputed
The quote is real and appears verbatim on the cited Hansard debate page for 29 January 2026, but it is not attributed to Lord Hunt of Kings Heath. Hansard shows Lord Hunt’s speech earlier in the debate, while the quoted text appears in Lord Strasburger’s contribution: “A moratorium and binding international regulation of ASI is, frankly, our only hope...” Therefore the quotation is genuine but misattributed. ([hansard.parliament.uk](https://hansard.parliament.uk/lords/2026-01-29/debates/848C6617-4CB6-463C-9957-82C53ACA2858/SuperintelligentAI))

Quote attributed to Lord Hunt of Kings Heath, year 2026. The Hansard source URL returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but a web search confirmed the quote and attribution: it is from the House of Lords debate on Superintelligent AI on 29 January 2026, where Lord Hunt of Kings Heath called for "A moratorium and binding international regulation of ASI [as] frankly, our only hope, however hard it will be to agree. It will be even harder to enforce, but we have to do it; there is no choice." He moved the question on an international moratorium on superintelligent AI development. The quote supports halting superintelligence development, consistent with the "for" vote on "Ban superintelligence development until safety consensus is reached." Author attribution, year, relevancy, and vote direction all check out.
