NVIDIA has released StormCast, a generative AI model designed for high-fidelity atmospheric dynamics simulations, aiming to accurately predict mesoscale weather, which is crucial for disaster planning and mitigation. This model made its debut in papers co-authored with research institutions, providing groundbreaking predictive capabilities for frequently occurring extreme weather events, such as the over $150 billion annual losses in the U.S. StormCast is part of the NVIDIA Earth-2 digital twin cloud platform, integrating AI, physics simulations, and computer graphics.
