Fire trackers: how can we use modelling techniques to predict where wildfires will occur?

Futurum

The new wind tunnel, along with the other apparatus, will allow the team to collect all sorts of important data. These data can then be used to develop models which can help predict the occurrence, location and intensity of future bushfires. These models we run use many, many data inputs,” says Erica.

ChatGPT Gets Its “Wolfram Superpowers”!

Stephen Wolfram

can’t itself be expected to do actual nontrivial computations , or to systematically produce correct (rather than just “looks roughly right”) data, etc. And there’s something else: while “pure ChatGPT” is restricted to things it “learned during its training” , by calling us it can get up-to-the-moment data. But there’s more too.
