Compute governance
Overseeing the powerful computer chips used to build advanced AI.
Training the most powerful AI takes vast amounts of specialized computing power, and compute governance is the idea of watching and setting rules around that power. Because these giant computing runs are hard to hide, governments see them as a practical place to keep an eye on frontier AI. It is one lever policymakers have to steer where the technology goes.
For example
Rules that track who buys huge quantities of advanced AI chips are a form of compute governance.
