Today’s AI Forecast (yup, a fully AI-done forecast)

So, I’m trying something new this morning — an AI-delivered forecast built from the NWS Forecaster Discussion. This means, I’ve had an LLM read the local NWS forecast discussions and summarize the text in a short, 1-minute long paragraph. I then feed that paragraph to an AI creation tool and get the following Audio.

For clarification: I did zero work on the forecast delivered above. It is an accurate forecast (I made sure) but I didn’t write it, I didn’t do any of the math. Nuthin!

I’m considering trying to work out a way to add something like this to the daily forecast — if people are interested. I know sometimes I can be rather verbose in my write-ups and there may be a place for a quick 1-minute summary being read to you. Or, perhaps, creating some sort of delivery service on the app, where you tap a square and it plays this recording.

This takes a bit of legwork right now, but I’m hopeful that it gets easier in the future or as I find/learn about different ways to work through the creation process.

What do you guys think?
