oogle Introduces GenCast AI, a Revolutionary Weather Forecasting Model

Google has introduced GenCast AI, a revolutionary weather forecasting model powered by artificial intelligence. By employing a diffusion-based approach, GenCast aims to provide accurate predictions tailored to Earth’s unique geometry. It outperforms traditional models by using over 40 years of historical data, delivering precise long-term forecasts. For instance, in a test for Typhoon Hagibis, GenCast demonstrated superior prediction accuracy. This model can also assist in renewable energy sectors by forecasting wind and solar conditions. Google has made the model open-source to enhance global collaboration in meteorology.
