Summary
Artificial Intelligence has become a hot-button issue, with questions about AI accuracy and precision. But this week, we're exploring the role of artificial intelligence in weather forecasting! Come Off the Radar with us as we learn about how generative AI modeling can now use historical weather data to make hyper-local predictions about future weather probabilities. We'll be talking to Dr. Amy McGovern from the National Science Foundation's AI Institute for Research on Trustworthy AI in Weather, Climate, and Coastal Oceanography. We'll also be chatting with Ilan Price, a Senior Research Scientist at Google DeepMind whose work centers around using AI in weather forecasting. If you rely on your phone to check the weather forecast, you won't want to miss this one!
