This exercise brings the limits of cloud verification together. For each item, decide what it supports, what it cannot establish, who controls it, and what corroboration is still needed.

Answer from the assigned readings. Treat every qualifier as part of the question. Select only conclusions supported by the stated access and evidence.
Provider-held records can associate an account with a verified identity record, estimate resource use, and support a workload classification. They do not by themselves establish intent, model contents, capability, or a legal violation.
The final policy question remains: which actors and workloads should be covered, at what cost, and across which jurisdictions?
Task 1 of 9 · 3 min
True / false
Determine whether each statement is true or false. Mark all six.
1.A provider’s billing records can include the hardware configuration requested and the number of hours it was used.
2.Cluster power consumption, by itself, establishes that a customer is training a frontier model.
3.Customer code, data, and hyperparameters are ordinarily collected for cloud billing.
4.Compute accounting and workload classification answer the same verification question.
5.Under the proposed KYC scheme, a provider would monitor compute accumulation and move a customer into KYC before the threshold is crossed.
6.Adding mandatory metrics can narrow a detection gap, but the thresholds still require empirical review as technology changes.
One item differs from the other three in evidentiary type. Select it, then state the principle that explains the difference.
A provider has implemented the proposed KYC scheme and retains its ordinary billing and operational records. It has no direct access to customer code or data. Select every category available under those conditions.
Match each item in the first column to the strongest conclusion it can support. Use each conclusion once.
Complete the verification map by matching each function to its mechanism. Use five terms from the bank. Three terms are not used.
Put the six stages of the Egan–Heim scheme in order. Drag a row or use its arrow buttons; the earliest event goes first.
Match each description to the correct mechanism. Use each mechanism once.
A provider verifies a customer company and its recorded beneficial owners. The customer declares a rendering workload. It then requests tens of thousands of accelerators and shows sustained accelerator utilization, communication patterns associated with parallelization, and limited traffic to external networks. Select every conclusion supported by these facts.
Six accounts are registered to subsidiaries with the same verified beneficial owner. They run GPU sessions in sequence. Every session remains below a per-account FLOP threshold, but their aggregate compute exceeds it, and large data transfers precede the later sessions. Which response is justified?
