Google unveils AlphaGenome Atlas and WeatherNext 3 as AI tools expand global reach
Summary
Google launches AlphaGenome Atlas and WeatherNext 3, opening a map of 9 billion possible genetic variants while deploying a weather model it says makes next-day precipitation forecasts 50% more accurate.
Key Points
- Google says its technologies now support more than 300 languages spoken by 7 billion people, or 86% of the global population, and launches the AI & Economy ATLAS interactive dataset.
- Google opens AlphaGenome Atlas, mapping 9 billion possible single-letter genetic changes across the human genome to predict how variants alter cellular behavior.
- Google introduces WeatherNext 3, which it says delivers precipitation forecasts 50% more accurate at least a day ahead and is already used in its products.
