Why this model scores 34.7

WeatherNext Cyclones is highly capable within a narrow forecasting domain and is broadly deployable through released code and weights. It does not autonomously act in the world, remains subordinate to human forecasters, and has low misuse and control difficulty despite open distribution, so its Doom Score remains far below general frontier agents.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to WeatherNext Cyclones

The model score of 34.7 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.7 measures the accumulated evidence trajectory. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION0.00

Each article's signed Doom Index movement is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being counted in full on several model pages. The model's risk score itself never changes the overall index.
