In a breakthrough for artificial intelligence, researchers at Google's DeepMind have developed an AI system called GraphCast that can predict worldwide weather up to 10 days in the future more accurately than traditional forecasting methods.
According to a recent announcement, GraphCast was more precise than the current leading weather forecasting system run by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) - in over 90% of the 1,380 evaluation metrics tested.
GraphCast works by using a machine learning technique called graph neural networks.
Matthew Chantry, an expert at ECMWF, confirmed GraphCast consistently outperformed other AI weather models from companies like Huawei and Nvidia. He believes this marks a significant turning point for AI in meteorology.
