AI weather forecasts, like Google's SEEDS, offer faster, cheaper, and more accurate predictions of storms compared to traditional methods.

AI weather forecasts can accurately predict the path and intensity of major storms, such as Storm Ciarán, faster, cheaper, and using less computational power than traditional forecasts. Researchers from the University of Reading found that weather forecasts based on machine learning can produce similar accuracy as traditional forecasts, highlighting the transformative potential of AI in weather prediction. Google's AI model, SEEDS, generates multiple weather scenarios much quicker and cheaper than conventional models, offering the potential for more accurate and timely forecasts, which could save lives by enabling better preparation for extreme weather events.
