IBM and NASA Collaborate to Develop Multimodal Foundation Models for Weather Prediction


In the continuous development of the AI field, people are beginning to worry about the impact of AI on Earth, particularly its high energy consumption and carbon emissions. The latest research shows that generative AI queries consume much more energy than traditional search engine requests, up to four to five times the energy of traditional operations. Especially, the energy required for image generation tasks is much higher than that of text-based operations. According to research by Morgan Sta
Weather forecasting and energy conservation are the roles of artificial intelligence in climate change. Companies like Google, NVIDIA, IBM, and Huawei are noteworthy in the field of climate change. Artificial intelligence can accelerate innovative solutions to address the impacts of climate change.
NVIDIA released the Nemotron3Embed embedding model series for production-grade RAG, agent retrieval, code search, and memory. The 8B model ranks first on the RTEB benchmark, making it the top open-source embedding model. The series includes three checkpoints: accuracy-focused 8B-BF16, lightweight 1B-BF16, and 1B-NVFP4 4-bit optimized for Blackwell architecture. All models use bidirectional attention.....
