There is a great article from the German Meteorological Service on WeatherNext 3 and how AI-based weather models will probably co-exist with physics-based ones.

This was posted recently on Show HN: https://nickleenders.github.io/verisky-scoreboard/?city=lond... which tracks performance of the main models (including the AI ones) in various locations.

There's also https://nickleenders.github.io/verisky-scoreboard/history.ht... which tracks the trends over time.

There's another tool which seemed to coordinate with the launch of WeatherNext 3 last week, the "Operational WeatehrBench" from Brightband -> https://owb.brightband.com/

It features a couple of AI and NWP model forecasts for comparison.
