Google, one of the leading companies in artificial intelligence, wanted to bring this technology to weather forecasting. Recently developed by DeepMind in this context, GenCast It was announced.

Trained with 40 years of weather information, GenCast analyzes the data and… Accurate forecasts up to 15 days in a very short time of 8 minutes it can be done.

Even better than the world’s best weather forecasting system

In its statements about this, Google stated that GenCast was compared with existing advanced systems. Accordingly, the world’s most advanced weather forecasting system Much better performance than the ENS system of the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts showed.

The tests made weather forecasts for 2019. The results show that GenCast, trained with weather data up to 2018, 97.2% more accurate results compared to ENS He was seen removing it.

Of course it is not yet a perfect model. It is still in development and has some shortcomings. However, in the future it can develop into a system that can actually save lives. We should point out that GenCast is just one of Google’s weather models. The company will launch these models in the future. Search and maps It plans to integrate it into its services such as.
