Regulator proposes disclosure rules for frontier training runs

The draft rule would require labs above a compute threshold to report training runs before they begin.

Regulator proposes disclosure rules for frontier training runs

A regulator has published draft rules that would require AI labs training models above a set compute threshold to disclose the training run before it begins, part of a broader push toward pre-deployment oversight.

What triggers the disclosure

  • A compute threshold measured in floating point operations
  • Any model intended for public API release above that threshold
  • An exemption for pure research runs not intended for deployment

Industry response has been mixed, with larger labs broadly supportive of a clear threshold and smaller developers warning the rule could still capture more routine work than intended.
