Ai Energy Score Leaderboard

Edited by :

Summary

These results are made available in a public leaderboard to track progress over time. Furthermore, we outline actionable recommendations for AI developers, policymakers, and other stakeholders on how to integrate AI Energy Score into their decision-making processes, ensuring that energy efficiency becomes a key consideration when developing, deploying, and selecting AI models.

The AI Energy Score project represents an initial step towards creating a standardized framework for evaluating the energy efficiency of AI models

The editorial perspective

The project stands out as a particularly relevant tool for evaluating the energy consumption of generative AI. With a detailed and publicly available methodology, the AI Energy Score demonstrates its scientific validity.

The project description also highlights areas for improvement and upcoming challenges in order to become a benchmark tool.

They also provide tools to evaluate a proprietary language model. This makes it possible to align evaluation processes and allows development teams to reliably compare the tools they use or develop with those already assessed by the AI Energy Score. It’s an effective way to raise awareness among teams about the impact of their language models, with ease and consistency.

In brief, the editorial perspective

The most

  • Very detailed methodology
  • Consortium of highly relevant and subject-matter expert contributors
  • Relevant prospects for future development
  • Proven usefulness for both the general public and project teams within companies

The least

  • In the table, the displayed model names lack clarity because they are not the public names but identifiers
  • The filters could be more advanced (e.g., proprietary vs. open-source models, by geographic origin, by usage rate, etc.)
  • It could be interesting to isolate the 4 or 5 most well-known language models to better raise awareness among the general public
