Cutting AI Datacenter Energy with Reinforcement Learning
Measured Power Control of LLM Training from One GPU to the Fleet: Reinforcement-learning post-training dominates modern language-model development, yet its power behavior on GPU hardware has not been characterized, and datacenters manage GPU power with workload-blind mechanisms, static caps and reactive throttling, that slow hardware indiscriminately. We instrument GRPO training with half-second power telemetry at 7B, 1...
