Google DeepMind's AI Weather Forecasting Model: Graphcast

This chapter explores Google DeepMind's AI weather forecasting model Graphcast and its capabilities. It discusses its strengths in precipitation forecasts, limitations in ensemble forecasts and predicting extreme weather events, and the potential weaknesses of training AI models solely on historical data. The chapter also mentions the development of a similar AI model by ECMWF and expresses hope for further improvements in weather forecasts.
