Sasha (Alexandra) Luccioni (born Alexandra Vorobyova) is a computer scientist who works on computational sustainability and algorithmic bias. Her research aims at quantifying and analyzing the carbon footprint of deep learning models.[1][2]
Education[edit]
Luccioni obtained a bachelor's degree in Linguistics and a master's degree in Cognitive Science, studying language acquisition in virtual environments.[3] In 2016 she got a PhD in Cognitive computing at the Université du Québec à Montréal, where she wrote her thesis on the role of Artificial intelligence and Natural language processing in language acquisition.[4]
Career and research[edit]
Luccioni started her career at Nuance Communications, before joining Morgan Stanley as the founding member of their Artificial Intelligence Center of Excellence.[5] There, she worked on developing new techniques for named-entity recognition and sentiment analysis in financial settings.
In 2019, she joined the Mila research institute to work with Yoshua Bengio, leading "This Climate Does Not Exist", a project that used Generative adversarial network approaches to create images of climate change impacts around the world.[6] In 2020, she was named a National Geographic Explorer.[7]
Since 2021, she has been the climate research lead at Hugging Face, assessing and reporting on the carbon footprint of AI[8] and specifically of transformer models.[9] She also studies the ethical and societal impacts of machine learning models and datasets.[10][11]
In September 2023, Luccioni was named to MIT Technology Review’s “35 Innovators Under 35” list for contributions to the field of artificial intelligence.[12] The next month, she gave a TED talk during the TEDWomen event in Atlanta on why the world needs to focus on AI’s current negative impacts rather than future existential risks.[13] Her talk has garnered over 1 million views since it was uploaded.
As of 2024, she serves as a board member of Women in Machine Learning,[14] and a member of the OECD AI Expert Group on AI Compute and Climate.[15]
