The story so far: On December 4, Google DeepMind unveiled GenCast, an artificial intelligence model the company said could forecast the weather better than most existing tools as well as more days in advance. According to the Nature paper, GenCast had “greater skill than ENS on 97.2% of 1,320 targets we evaluated and better predicts extreme weather, tropical cyclone tracks …
A new machine-learning weather prediction model called GenCast can outperform the best traditional forecasting systems in at least some situations, according to a paper by Google DeepMind researchers published today in Nature. According to the GenCast paper, this probabilistic approach creates more accurate forecasts than the best numerical weather prediction system in the world – the one at the European …
Google's Deepmind unveiled a new AI model called GenCast for faster and accurate weather prediction. In a paper published in Nature, Deepmind says that the AI model GenCast outdo the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts ENS, which is the top operational medium-range weather forecast in the world. GenCast marks a critical advance in AI-based weather prediction that builds on …
GenCast, a new artificial intelligence tool by Google's DeepMind is now capable of devising 15-day weather forecasts, outperforming the world’s best forecasts meant to track deadly storms and save lives, according to a New York Times report. Google's GenCast outperformed the forecasts of the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts 97.2% of the time At the moment, the world leader …
Unlike traditional models, which rely heavily on physics-based equations, GenCast uses machine learning to generate ensemble-based forecasts. This means it can create probability-driven projections AI systems like GenCast are seen as powerful tools in a forecaster’s arsenal, providing insights that can enhance day-to-day predictions.
