India is turning to artificial intelligence to improve climate models and enhance weather forecasting as the nation grapples with increased extreme weather events including torrential rains, floods, and droughts. Nearly 3,000 people have been killed by extreme weather events in 2023, per the Centre for Science and Environment. Weather agencies worldwide are concentrating on AI to reduce costs and boost speed, which Britain's Met Office says could "revolutionize" weather forecasting.
