The challenge

Artificial intelligence depends on increasingly large computing systems. Improving the efficiency of algorithms and datacenter operations can reduce the resources required to train and operate those systems.

The work

Carbon Connect brings together research on efficient algorithms and sustainable datacenter operations. The initiative is supported by a U.S. National Science Foundation grant and is conducted in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania.

Why it matters

Sustainable AI requires progress across the full computing stack. Research that connects algorithmic efficiency with infrastructure operations can help future systems deliver more capability with fewer resources.
