Pretty much the only thing I think AI could be useful for - forecasting the weather based off tracking massive amounts of data. I look forward to seeing how this particular field of study is improved.

Bonus points, AI weather modeling, for once, saves energy relative to physics models. Pair it with some sort of light weight physical model to keep the hallucinations at bay, and you’ve got a good combo.

    As much data as they have, it seems like they could use more data. Just as an example, I have two weather apps on my phone. And for the same city, they will give me two different temperatures. Checked back to back. And those temperatures will both be different than the temperature of my thermometer at my house. What if each city had say like 50 sensors all over the city that would report in and then they would take the average of all 50 of those sensors in order to get a more accurate number? And that’s just for temperature.
