Why it matters
- →WeatherNext 3 offers unprecedented resolution, improving local weather predictions.
- →It uses real-time data, reducing lag and increasing forecast accuracy.
- →The model supports renewable energy planning with precise weather insights.
Google DeepMind has introduced WeatherNext 3, its most advanced AI model for global weather forecasting. The model uses real-time satellite data to produce hourly forecasts at a 5-kilometer resolution, offering a fivefold improvement over its predecessor. This allows for more accurate predictions of local weather events, crucial for areas like Latin America and Asia-Pacific that lacked high-resolution forecasts. WeatherNext 3 also supports renewable energy planning by predicting wind speeds and solar radiation levels, enhancing the ability to match energy production with demand.

llama.cpp b12029 adds CUDA 13 and Snapdragon support
This release quietly cements llama.cpp as the universal inference runtime by finally supporting NVIDIA's latest CUDA 13 stack alongside AMD's ROCm 10.0. The inclusion of native builds for Linux arm64 with Snapdragon chips, covering CPU, Adreno GPU, and Hexagon NPU, signals a serious push into mobile edge deployment. While Apple Silicon KleidiAI is disabled in this specific build, the broader hardware coverage means developers no longer need to compile from source for most modern accelerators. It’s less about new features and more about removing friction for anyone running local models on bleeding-edge or diverse hardware.
