Confirmed: the source URL is the official Astral Codex Ten post “My AI Opinions,” credited to Scott Alexander and dated June 11, 2026. The article contains the sentence at lines 112–113 with the same wording; the only difference from your version is typographic apostrophes in the source (“we’ve,” “I’m”) versus straight apostrophes here, which is not a substantive alteration.
