SIMPLE: a four-parameter law predicts LLM inference energy cost from architecture
Across 13 dense LLMs on H100 GPUs the law reaches R2 of 0.969 and 11.97% MAPE, and shows agentic requests cost 13x more energy than non-agentic ones.

Across 13 dense LLMs on H100 GPUs the law reaches R2 of 0.969 and 11.97% MAPE, and shows agentic requests cost 13x more energy than non-agentic ones.
SpikeLite uses frequency-selective spiking encoding and sparse channel attention for energy-efficient time-series forecasting.
SQD disaggregates LLM inference by quadratic versus subquadratic attention layers, improving energy efficiency up to 56% on heterogeneous systems versus GPU-only baselines.

NVIDIA claims Vera Rubin NVL72 delivers up to 30x more work per watt, citing OpenRouter data that agentic workloads use 15x more tokens than chat.
