Models that are more reliable and less energy-intensive could help us to better prepare for extreme weather. Facebook Email Accurate forecasts help people to prepare for extreme weather events such as tropical storms. A computer model that combines conventional weather-forecasting technology with machine learning has outperformed other artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools at predicting weather scenarios and long-term climate trends . The tool, described in Nature on 22 July 1 , is the first machine-learning model to generate accurate ensemble weather forecasts — ones which present a range of scenarios. Its development opens the door for forecasting that is faster and less energy-intensive than existing tools, and more detailed than approaches based solely on AI. “Traditional climate models need to be run on supercomputers. This is a model you can […]
