No shit. Weather prediction is one of the oldest applications of all forms of statistics, including machine learning. We've been using ML techniques to predict the weather for a long time.
Yea but not rlly. This vid was in reference to this. First we had to do actual physics sims which required supercomputers n stuff. These models reduced the required resources for weather forecasting by thousands of times. Please watch the vid before telling me that it is dumb.
That Google repo didn't invent using ML/AI for climate/weather modelling. I work with scientists who have been doing that sort of modelling their entire careers.
Sure, but they did make it a billion times more efficient, no?
Good for them I guess. My original comment was responding to the clickbait video. There's nothing novel going on here. This is just the natural progression of a technology that has been around for a long time.
But it's not clickbait tho. Sure, they might not've gone into the technical details of this (their audience doesn't rlly care for them), but the vid was talking abt this. No lying, hence no clickbait.
I don't think they even watched the video.
Yep they didn't for sure! Classic Lemmy- Lemming sees "AI", Lemming downvotes.
Here's another video on this subject.
