I would like to see a CERN for AI [...] where all the top scientists come together and see whether they can make a super intelligence. And, if they can, they contain it into a system where it can't just go out and persuade people to let it run the world.AI Verified source (2026)

The quote directly supports the full statement: the author explicitly says, "I would like to see a CERN for AI," describing a collaborative institute where top scientists work together. That clearly indicates support for creating a global AI institute similar to CERN.

The quote says "I would like to see a CERN for AI" where scientists "see whether they can make a super intelligence" and, if they can, "contain it," which clearly supports the idea.

The Guardian interview at the provided URL contains the full sentence and attributes it to Tim Berners-Lee; PC Gamer separately reproduces the same wording from that interview. The quote is authentic and correctly attributed, with only minor presentation differences in the submitted version: Guardian styles it as Cern, and the source has a comma after AI rather than an actual omission.

Guardian URL blocked WebFetch, but web search verified Tim Berners-Lee's exact quote calling for "a CERN for AI" where top scientists collaborate on safe superintelligence and contain it. Multiple sources (CleanTechnica, PC Gamer, AI World Today, Slashdot) corroborate the Guardian Jan 29, 2026 interview. Vote "for" statement "Mandate the CERN for AI to build safe superintelligence" directly aligns with his proposal. Year 2026 is current.
