Source evidence
1 src · 1 checkNoteThe record claims Scott Wiener holds a role at the Center for AI Safety (CAIS) as a 'Key Legislator (SB 1047 sponsor)' with a start date of 2024-02. While the source confirms Scott Wiener is a California State Senator and confirms he sponsored/authored SB 1047 (as part of his housing legislation work), the source contains no mention whatsoever of any affiliation with the Center for AI Safety. The source is a comprehensive biography covering his career extensively, yet makes no reference to CAIS. This is not a contradiction of the CAIS affiliation claim (which would require the source to explicitly state he does NOT work there), but rather an absence of confirmation. The claim about CAIS affiliation cannot be verified from this source.
