There is the standard AI hate, my comment isn’t about that.
I think AI has an actual place in weather - but in the prediction of weather. AI models using info and patterns we can’t see on top of modern meteorology is amazing and I’m happy to see that happening.
This, this is just idiotic corporate pushes of “Put more AI in things”. I don’t need it to drain my battery to summarize the weather. I can see a forecast for the day and know what it means, I’ve been doing that for decades now. It’s more performative for investors than useful for me.
I agree, I was super excited about the probalistic opportunity for AI to help us unlock portions of meteorology that are still unknown to us, such as tornadogenesis and long range weather forecasting. The funny thing is there is definite opportunity to improve most weather apps, since % chance of rain doesn’t tell the person anything about precipitation on a given day. What type of precipitation? How long? Will it be intense and short, or light but long-lasting? This one such bridge could vastly improve how people are able to understand a typically truncated weather forecast, but it still needs intent, which this implementation lacks
