I suggest you read the post. Reading is typically how information is transmitted.

EDIT: the post I am responding to was altered to sound much less confrontational. It was originally:

> So what exactly are you “launching” and why does it require venture capital?

Props. HN really needs an [edited] icon… throw it on the long list!

Alright, what they presented, in the current state, is just a clone of a 10 year old project with a 2.5 month old weather forecast and some AI story attached to it.

The project this “cloned” is just a data visualization tool. You can plug any data into it - good data, bad data.

They are launching an AI model which they claim produces higher quality weather data than traditional models relying on physical simulation. And they used this visualization library to make an engaging website.

Constructively, you have gotten to this position by overreacting to a perceived “clone” and failing to be enlightened by the numerous comments and the original post explaining the purpose.

Respectfully, I suggest you take a breath and try to disassociate from whatever emotional reaction you are having about this.

It's the first line man. The visual is just a visual, their product is the data being visualized.
