Artificial intelligence gives weather forecasters a new edge

AI's influence on weather forecasting has grown significantly, with DeepMind's GraphCast making precise predictions quickly. As Hurricane Beryl approached, A.I. predicted Texas landfall ahead of traditional methods. This breakthrough suggests that with AI assistance, forecasting precision and speed can vastly improve, potentially saving lives by providing advanced warnings for extreme weather events.

• AI predicted Hurricane Beryl would hit Texas, proving accurate.
• DeepMind's GraphCast produced the prediction in seconds.
• The AI model can outperform traditional forecasts.
• Predictions can run on standard desktop computers.
• GraphCast won Britain's top engineering prize.
