Technology cannot steer itself. Strategy provides that steering, establishing the rule that purpose and judgment must precede compute capital. As the frontier artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem accelerates exponentially, the pacing problem induces severe cognitive tunneling in engineering teams, prioritizing scalar throughput over human judgment. A calibrated pacing rate is imperative to check unchecked scaling, guarantee safety, and build models in whose alignment society can place warranted confidence. Traditional oversight fails through retrospective checklists, a pathology of performat
