Research Challenge

We’ve spent decades optimizing algorithms for speed and accuracy.

What if the next major optimization target is energy?

Hypothesis:
Can AI automatically rewrite any computation into a functionally equivalent form that minimizes hardware switching activity, memory movement, and overall energy consumption—while producing identical results?

Imagine a compiler that doesn’t just optimize for performance. It optimizes for joules per computation.

If successful, this could reduce energy consumption across AI training, inference, cloud data centers, edge devices, robotics, and supercomputers.

I’m looking for researchers and engineers interested in testing—not assuming—this hypothesis with measurable experiments on real hardware.

Questions I’d love feedback on:

1. Which benchmarks should be used?
2. Which hardware counters best measure switching-related energy?
3. Where are today’s compiler optimizations fundamentally limited?

If this hypothesis is wrong, let’s prove it.
If it’s right, the impact could extend far beyond AI.
