I can't wait to check the weather one day and it's like, "114% chance of spaghetti in your hometown of Grunddopol" and I'll just throw my phone into a puddle and walk into traffic

So Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was actually a cautionary tale? Go figure

Try throwing your phone into traffic and taking a walk into a puddle - much more fulfilling.

Chuck, I looked up a critical deadline on a vendor website and was given the answer via AI.

It. Was. Wrong.

Sir! I will have you know the effects of atmospheric pasta rivers in Grunddopol have increased carb insurance for residents to a disturbing degree!

To be fair, machine learning tools have transformed climate modeling and weather prediction. "AI" has really helped predictive modeling of many complex systems, but the interpretation and presentation of the results are best left to human beings.

Like, it could already do the bad job of making up a place for what the weather might look like. Or a visualization of a cloud that bears precipitation. But why would you task it with a map of the place where your viewers live? Like why not just have it make up made up stuff?

I thought someone should write about these fictional towns, and the lives of their residents, but then I remembered that would be indirectly using AI to be "creative".

This is clearly not a serious attempt at a forecast, but rather the result of bad prompting to a commercial LLM.

In reality, AI has done spectacular things for weather and climate modeling. Arguably the best and most successful use case - especially for mariners.

They invented a computer that can't do math and somehow decided this was a genius move.

Everything else aside, can't help but find it astounding that people in the position and authority to make these decisions are willing to proudly accept completely dogshit quality slop that they would fire an intern for in a heartbeat if that human made it.

I'm pretty sure the AI push is coming from the AI companies. What I find hilarious is that the more they push this slop, the more obvious it is to the average consumer that they are being fed slop, which makes them even less likely to adopt AI.

No one wants to spend their day fixing AI garbage.

Likelihood this is the result of the DOGE bros mandate to get rid of any validation process and replace people with "AI": πŸ’―

I really, really hate this bullshit specifically because advanced machine learning is absolutely critical to both weather and climate forecasting. The data scientists working on these models are at the top of the game.

Someone lazy slaps a GenAI overlay on that and it gives the anti AI folks ammo

There are a lot of tech illiterate folks on the left who take any stupid use of genAI as an excuse to rail against all computer science.

Yes, the folks pushing AI everything bear a lot of the blame. But this nonsense makes it harder for disinterested folks to distinguish between good AI and bad

Thank you. πŸ‘What's next?

"Hello, Mark. I'm sorry, Mark. I cannot permit the toaster to work today since you gained a pound this week. No bagels and cream cheese for you. I have ordered Kale, however, from Amazon Fresh, which I hear loves AI and should be considered a friend."
