Better Artificial Intelligence for Everyone





Super excited to share that MLPerf Power (HPCA 2025) was selected for IEEE MICRO Top Picks 2025, 1 of the 12 most impactful computer architecture & systems papers of the year! Power consumption is the defining constraint for modern ML systems. Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, and OpenAI have all announced plans for gigawatt-scale datacenters (for context, 5 GW = 5 nuclear reactors = Miami's power footprint). On the other end of the spectrum, we're anticipating billions of AI-enabled devices at the edge. We created MLPerf Power to be the industry-standard to measure, understand, and compare energy use across all deployment scales. We're excited to see that it's already impacting individual companies' strategies and has been incorporated into the IEEE semiconductor roadmap. We @MLCommons also collect and open source over 1,800 reproducible measurements from 60 diverse systems. These reveal several important insights that shed light on the nonlinear scaling of energy efficiency in modern systems and can enable many new data-driven optimization approaches. Just as @MLPerf aligned industry towards shared performance goals, we are hopeful that MLPerf Power will do the same for power and energy efficiency!
