Artificial intelligence combined with 10 global climate models predicts that most regions will reach critical warming thresholds faster than expected. Published in Environmental Research Letters, the study suggests surpassing 1.5°C by 2040 and potentially 3°C by 2060 in several areas, including South Asia and Central Europe. This rapid warming poses increased risks to vulnerable ecosystems and communities. Researchers highlight AI's role in refining regional climate forecasts, enhancing the accuracy of predictions for specific societal and ecological impacts. Policymakers are urged to focus on these regional changes for better readiness.
