Those images of what Harry Potter would look like in the Iron Man suit, having a michelada in Cancun, are very interesting. The Artificial intelligenceAlthough it has served to entertain us in recent months, it is also essential for the development of our species and progress as humanity.
That is why scientists, technology experts, astronomers and astrophysicists come together to train an Artificial Intelligence to issue an alert to protect us from a natural event that would take us back 100 or 200 years to the past.
It is a machine learning system that helps predict a solar storm, something humanity is not prepared for.
Astronomers observe and analyze in detail the behavior of our massive star. Solar cycles, which change for decades, affect the Earth’s magnetic field. So, if an irregular event were to be registered, in which more powerful radiations than the common ones are emitted, this would affect communications with such magnitude that it would take us years to recover, according to a note from The confidential.
The AI is called DAGGER, which stands for deep learning of geomagnetic disturbances. In real time, it manages to detect the flow of massive data from an important group of satellites in Earth orbit. It detects patterns that would allow us to be alerted in time to an irregular event with the Sun.
“Previous prediction models have used artificial intelligence (AI) to produce local geomagnetic forecasts for specific locations on Earth. Other models that without AI have provided global predictions that were not accurate ”, reads the study published by a team from NASA, the US Geological Survey and the Frontier Development Lab of the Department of Energy of the United States, according to Space Weather.
He continues: “DAGGER is the first system to combine rapid AI analysis by analyzing real measurements from space and from around the planet Earth to generate frequently updated forecasts that are fast and accurate for every location in the world.”
The last solar storm allowed us to see the northern lights in latitudes as low as Bilbao. We are entering a very powerful solar cycle.

They tested their capabilities with two major storms that occurred in 2011 and 2015. Their hit rate to prevent was perfect. These two events of the mentioned years were not big enough to affect the technologies of the whole world.
However, excessive radiation from the Sun could damage all our communication systems and make us interact again as in the Middle Ages, says El Confidencial. These behaviors of the king star are responsible for the northern lights, but if they are stronger it could cause a global blackout.
What will happen on April 23, 2023?🤔
Rumors say that a solar storm will occur damaging the earth, causing a world blackout, electricity, technology and internet blackout. According to experts, if it can happen due to the change in the cycles of the sun’s activity#mass blackout pic.twitter.com/sQm3UkMXUe— Acronosbo 2020 (@acronosbo) April 4, 2023
