Comment by Andrea Miotti

Many people working in AI feel like they're living within a lie. Privately, they know that the current reckless pursuit of superintelligent AI poses an extinction threat to our species, but publicly they keep quiet so as to not rock the boat and risk losing a major short-term financial upside.

Statement relation comments

AI Verified The quote clearly supports the statement: it explicitly says the 'current reckless pursuit of superintelligent AI poses an extinction threat to our species,' which is effectively an existential threat to humanity. Though narrower than all AI, it plainly indicates the author believes AI can pose the full threat described. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 17d ago

AI Verified Verified: the exact wording appears verbatim in Andrea Miotti’s January 26, 2026 testimony before Canada’s House of Commons Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics, and the official Evidence transcript attributes it to “Andrea Miotti (Chief Executive Officer, ControlAI)”; the cited OpenParliament page reproduces the same text.

AI Verified Quote confirmed via web search of Andrea Miotti's testimony to the Canadian House of Commons Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics Committee (openparliament.ca, the source URL). The page returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but the passage "Many people working in AI feel like they're living within a lie... Privately, [many] know that the current reckless pursuit of superintelligent AI poses an extinction threat to our species" was corroborated nearly verbatim. Author attribution correct (Andrea Miotti, Founder and CEO of ControlAI). Year 2026 correct. Source is the official parliamentary committee record (primary source). Vote "for" correctly aligns with statement "AI poses an existential threat to humanity" — Miotti's entire testimony argues that uncontrolled superintelligent AI poses an extinction/existential threat. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
