Google introduces GenCast, an AI model for weather forecasting

07 December 2024
In the company's testing, GenCast proved more accurate and faster to generate than the current state-of-the-art weather forecasting models.

      I have never seen any type of weather forecast work.
      It never says "It is going to rain"; until it rains.
      It says; "It is sunny." when there is thunderstorm.
      Artificial idiocy won't be able to guess either. I hope it uses "heads or tails" to guess. At least we will have 50% chance to get it right...

        Nice move, Google! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

          how Hagibis got its name?

            BTW err By The Way waiting for AI that would predict humans life i.e. future.
            We will have tarot cards like app and people will believe it.
            What a cruel world we live and got into.
            Like seriously.

              Well still the predicting weather will be as difficult as until now.
              It will still say 50% chance for rain so it could or it could not rain at all.
              Why this thing???

                hope google will not suspend this.
                hoping in future will come more like these.

                GenMap (traffic lights, accident prone zones etc.)
                GenFit (health, personal trainer etc.)

                  Surprised that they made it open and released the weights as well. Nice one Google

                    This is probably one of the more practical implementations of AI I've seen. Something that most people will actually use and depend on everyday. I hope this model gets implemented soon with weather providers, looks very promising.

                      That's the real use case for AI which I had on my mind since day one. Not so far from now it'll be possible to forecast an whole year of weather.

                        Useful sure but I'm still put off by the AI moniker.

                          Zendroid, 05 Dec 2024And where's the app? probably reserved for multibillion channels, for a hefty sum of course...

                            This is a great use of AI, not stupid fake image generation

                              And where's the app?

                                >a traditional weather forecast model takes hours on a supercomputer

                                Damn... How do these even work, I wonder?
