ML is used in weather prediction since the 80s and is the backbone of it since almost a decade. Not sure what are LLMs supposed to do there.

- danpalmer 11mo agoNo one is suggesting using LLMs for weather. DeepMind is making significant progress on weather prediction with new AI models.
- neumann 11mo agooh god - please tell BoM in Australia. Either ML is not keeping up with clime change unpredictability, or SOTA is worse than what we had 10 years ago.
- danpalmer 11mo agoI relocated to Australia last year. This country is obsessed with the BoM and I don't know why. The few times I've used it, it was either outright wrong, or I couldn't even find the weather info I wanted (like, is it going to rain tomorrow), and they only added TLS in 2025!
- Glemkloksdjf 11mo agoLLMs in general are ML based, need a lot of data and compute. The same infrastructure as any other ML based system. The AI/AGI hype in my opinion could be better renamed to ml with data and compute 'hype' (i don't like the word hype as it doesn't fit very well)
