Recent advancements in artificial intelligence are transforming weather prediction, with new AI models demonstrating the potential to outperform traditional numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems. These AI systems, developed by companies like Google DeepMind and Nvidia, analyze vast amounts of historical weather data to generate forecasts in minutes rather than hours. While they currently excel at short- to medium-range predictions, challenges remain for long-term forecasting and capturing extreme weather events. Researchers note that the future likely involves a hybrid approach, combining the speed of AI with the physical rigor of conventional models for the most reliable results.
