The Hardwired AI Pause Reframes an AI Pause as Infrastructure Control
The Working Group on AI Pause Feasibility’s Version 1.0 paper dated October 9, 2026 treats training limits as a compute control problem.
- Treat frontier training controls as infrastructure design, not only policy messaging.
- Watch the training versus inference split, because it drives how a pause could preserve model access.
- Expect verification debates to focus on chip tracking, cluster thresholds, and distributed training evasion.
