A collaboration led by Imperial College London, alongside the University of Edinburgh and the University of Cambridge, has secured £4.5 million from the Advanced Research + Invention Agency (ARIA). This initiative aims to enhance the performance of frontier AI models over the next three years, focusing on sustainability and efficiency. The project is part of a broader £50 million Scaling Compute program designed to significantly reduce the costs associated with AI hardware.
Frontier AI models are crucial for generating diverse content across various platforms, but their environmental impact is concerning. The collaboration seeks to create a scalable simulation environment to analyze energy usage and performance, potentially revolutionizing how AI systems are designed. By addressing the carbon footprint and financial demands of these technologies, the project aims to ensure a more sustainable future for AI.
• Imperial-led collaboration receives £4.5 million to enhance AI model performance.
• Project aims to reduce AI hardware costs by over a thousand-fold.
