"AI predicts catastrophic solar storm and satellite collision risk"

AI chatbot Google Bard warns that the next big solar storm could hit Earth anytime, causing widespread power outages, damage to satellites, and disruption of communications. The largest solar storm ever recorded was the Carrington Event in 1859, which caused telegraph wires to spark and start fires. While agencies like NOAA, NASA, and ESA monitor the Sun, they can only predict a solar storm after it has been unleashed, giving us a period of 24-48 hours. The damage caused by a major solar storm could have devastating consequences for modern society.
