Compute verification
Participation
How many facility records could inspectors check a country’s declaration against?
Suppose a compute agreement asks each government to declare its facilities, and inspectors check each declaration against records drawn from public sources. Choose which countries take part.
If China joins, 56 more records can be checked against its declaration.
- Power or chip figure recorded
- Neither recorded
One square per record in Scrutica’s facility register, of every status. The register counts what public sources report.
United States: 1,276 records, 240 with a power or a chip figure.
China: 56 records, 3 with a power or a chip figure.
All 3 records with a figure in China are operating sites with a power figure, together 667 MW.
Inspectors would need equipment details to decide which listed sites meet the agreement’s thresholds. Facilities absent from the public record would need to be found separately.
Each country’s records
34 of the 110 countries in the register have at least one record with a power or a chip figure.

Each bar is one country’s records in Scrutica’s facility register, of every status, drawn the same length; the register is no national inventory. The United States and China, marked at the left, head the list as the first two parties of the agreement this page supposes.

The register holds 17,254 MW on 320 operating sites with a power figure; 16 of them, 86 MW, name no country.
The Machine Intelligence Research Institute’s draft agreement, version 3, covers any chip cluster above 16 H100-equivalents (Article II, paragraph 16); 412 of the 420 records with a chip figure are above it. The draft’s second test, on accelerator memory, is not applied in this count.
How operating capacity is counted
Only operating capacity is counted. A build-out figure for a whole campus is left out even when the site operates, and a reviewed current deployment inside the campus counts in its place where the register has one, as at New Carlisle. Earlier phases of an operating cluster are left out of accelerator counts.
