This feels very big

Traditional weather forecasting was very compute intensive without clear optimization strategies. This is not only a jump in performance, predicting extreme weather events, it’s also a new paradigm with new optimizations to make

DeepMind AI weather forecaster beats world-class system
Artificial-intelligence model provides forecasts 15 days out, as well as the probability of accuracy. And it does so faster than the best operational model.

in the traditional approach, they basically brute force computer weather for the whole world. small inaccuracies got magnified dramatically as their effects carry to adjacent cells and on

by using AI, it’s more of a direct estimation, so the error magnification doesn’t really happen, iiuc
