Scholars Argue a Hard Pause of Frontier AI Training Is Technically Feasible
A working group of about 25 scholars from Berkeley, Oxford, Princeton and Stanford argues in a new paper that governments could verifiably halt frontier AI training by cutting off global AI chip supply, a direct response to Hinton's call for a hard pause.
