It's not clear to me how this is verifiable without constant hardware supervision. Even that'll get cracked, just like DVD encryption back in the day.

You almost need dedicated hardware that can't run any other software except a mechanical keyboard and make it communicate over an analog medium - something terribly expensive and inconvenient for AI farms to duplicate.

I started promoting the idea of hardware verification about 6 years ago. Didn't get any traction and I doubt I ever will.

I think Apple is the only company that would even be able to do that. You have to control the full stack to the pixels or speaker.

One physical robot with four wheels, a camera, and a 101 up/down "fingers" to match the keyboard can roll between physical machines and type on mechanical hardware keyboards. This brings the ceiling of how many accounts you can control down to the number of computers you have, but that's not a high price to pay.
