Salesforce Collaborates to Unveil AI Energy Score for Measuring AI Efficiency
Salesforce, in cooperation with Hugging Face, Cohere,and Carnegie Mellon University, today launched the AI Energy Score. This groundbreaking benchmarking tool allows AI developers and consumers to evaluate, identify, and compare the energy usage of AI models.
Salesforce additionally declared that it will be the first AI model developer to share the energy efficiency data for its proprietary models under the new framework. The AI Energy Score is intended to address the lack of transparency on the environmental impact of AI models. Similar to how Energy Star altered energy efficiency requirements appliances and electronics, this program offers a clear, reliable benchmark for AI model sustainability.
Unlocking Insights: Going Deeper for Meaningful Impact
The AI Energy Score will make its premiere at the AI Action Summit, which will bring together leaders from over 100 countries, the commercial sector, and civil society to discuss how to use artificial intelligence for good.
By increasing transparency, the score can influence market demand for efficient models and stimulate long-term AI development. Recognized by the French Government and the Paris Peace Forum for its transformative potential, the AI energy score includes:
Standardized Energy Ratings: A methodology for testing and comparing the energy efficiency of artificial intelligence models.
Public Leaderboard: A complete leaderboard with scores for ten typical AI tasks, such as text generation, image generation, and summarization, performed by 166 models, including Salesforce’s SFR-Embedding, xLAM, and SF-TextBase.
Benchmarking Portal: A platform that allows AI developers to submit open or proprietary AI models for evaluation and inclusion on the leaderboard. Open models may be tested automatically, whereas closed models can be evaluated via a secure testing sandbox.
Recognizable Energy Use Label: A new 1- to 5-star rating system for AI model energy use, with five stars signifying the highest efficiency. This enables developers and users to easily identify and select more sustainable models.
Once graded, AI developers can build standardized labels to communicate their models’ energy scores, with built-in recommendations on how to display the labels for maximum impact.
How Agentforce by Salesforce Supports Sustainability Efforts
The company introduced Agentforce, Salesforce Platfom’s agentic layer for deploying autonomous AI agents across any business function. Agentforce provides tools for creating and customizing agents, as well as a library of pre-built skills for sales, services, marketing, commerce, Tableau, Slack, and other areas.
• Agentforce is designed with sustainability at its core, giving great performance while reducing environmental effects. Unlike DIY AI systems that require energy-intensive model training for each customer, Agentforce is optimized right out of the box, removing the need for expensive or carbon-intensive training.
• Its agentic architecture goes beyond relying on a single large language model (LLM) and instead uses efficient small language models in conjunction with agentic reasoning and other advanced AI technologies to drastically reduce energy usage.
• Furthermore, Agentforce makes use of specialized data and metadata from Salesforce Data Cloud and the Salesforce Platform, resulting in excellent accuracy and responsiveness while reducing computational waste.
