A Reddit user has published a visualization of the current efficient frontier for open-source large language models. The chart defines efficiency as the benchmark score divided by the number of active parameters.

  • The analysis filters out all models that do not lie on the Pareto frontier.
  • The data is aggregated from artificialanalysis.ai, which serves as an overall indicator despite known imperfections.
  • The goal is to identify the most parameter-efficient open models available.
