AI rewrites France's AROME weather model from scientific papers in four days
capetorch · x · 2026-10-02
Developer nb4ld showed an AI-for-science experiment: having AI rewrite France's high-resolution numerical weather prediction model AROME based on published scientific papers. In just four days, the rewrite already produced "very promising" results — an extreme vibe-coding feat demonstrating how frontier coding models can reimplement complex scientific software directly from papers.
