EU launches AI-powered 'digital twin' of the Earth
Briefly

DestinE, an AI-powered simulator launched by the European Commission, enhances climate prediction accuracy. Models focus on extreme weather events and climate change adaptation, powered by high-performance computers like the LUMI supercomputer in Finland.
Margrethe Vestager highlighted DestinE's significance in observing environmental challenges to predict future scenarios, emphasizing the collaboration of scientific excellence and supercomputing power within Europe.
The digital twin of the Earth uses data from satellites, IoT sensors, and governmental sources to predict impacts like heatwaves, storms, and optimal wind farm locations, with plans to incorporate data from oceans, cities, and forests.
Future versions of DestinE will continue to evolve, aiming to create a comprehensive digital twin of the Earth by leveraging vast data sources from various ecosystems globally.
