Weather forecasting: the physics model is basically based on 8 different algorithms that are fed phyical data like temperature,..etc. And produce the predictions that we know today (reliable for about three days). Hence, it is pure number crunching. And the more computing power, the better the predictions. This has nothing to do with AI.
AI in weather forecasting is based on previous weather patterns, and tries to predict the future, based on that. In other words, pattern matching. The problem is that climate disaster will change these patterns massively, especiall if the jet stream changes, hence the long-term validity of it, seems to be meager at the moment.
