Swiss researchers announce possible artificial intelligence 'revolution' in forecasting
By leveraging massive volumes of NASA climate and environmental data through a supercomputer, scientists believe AI could transform weather and climate prediction systems.
Swiss researchers have transferred substantial amounts of climate and environmental data provided by NASA to servers connected to a supercomputer, according to a France 24 report broadcast on September 12, 2026.
These scientists believe that artificial intelligence modeling could bring about a genuine revolution in forecasting systems, the same source notes.
According to France 24, AI models are increasingly being used in several environment-related fields, particularly for weather and climate forecasting, as well as for early detection of natural disasters.
The report does not specify the identity of the researchers, the Swiss institution involved, or the timeline and concrete results achieved so far through this initiative. The exact terms of collaboration with NASA regarding the data transfer were also not detailed.
