• Structured AI beats humans in disaster decision-making by 39%

    Researchers have created a new AI framework that achieved 60.94% greater stability in decision accuracy compared to judgment-only AI systems, and outperformed human operators by 38.93%. The codebase is openly available and evaluated on CrisisMMD, xBD, and RescueNet datasets, with a public web app used to gather human responses.

  • Google’s DeepMind redefines weather forecasting with AI-powered GenCast

    An artificial intelligence (AI) model developed by Google’s DeepMind — known as GenCast — is proving to be faster and more accurate than the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) system in both speed and accuracy. DeepMind has further advanced its AI initiative by releasing GenCast’s code and parameters for non-commercial use, inviting researchers and meteorologists worldwide to explore its potential and collaboratively address its limitations.
