Great news out of the Chinese mainland! Researchers have just unveiled FengYu, the world’s first full‐chain AI forecasting model for space weather. Covering everything from the solar wind to the magnetosphere and ionosphere, this breakthrough technology marks a giant leap forward in predicting solar storms and protecting satellite communications and critical infrastructure.
Launched at a recent meteorological event during the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai, FengYu’s innovative pluggable architecture means it can be updated and adapted to meet future needs. This flexibility sets a new standard, overcoming the bottlenecks of traditional numerical models.
Wang Jingsong, director‐general of the National Satellite Meteorological Center, explained, "It is a full-chain AI forecasting model and a pluggable architecture composed of large models of different space regions covering the solar wind, magnetosphere and ionosphere. It can be updated and plugged according to our future needs." 🚀
This pioneering model not only redefines how space weather is forecasted but also fuels further advancements in AI and meteorological research. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, a business professional, or simply curious about the future, FengYu is an inspiring example of how innovative technology can help us navigate an ever-changing world. 🌟
