Google DeepMind has developed a machine learning algorithm that it claims can predict the weather more accurately than current forecasting methods that use supercomputers.
GraphCast generated a more accurate 10-day forecast than the High Resolution Forecast (HRES) system run by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) - making predictions in minutes rather than hours.
But researchers say it is not flawless because results are generated in a black box - meaning the AI cannot explain how it found a pattern or show its workings - and that it should be used to complement rather than replace established tools.
