IBM's embattled Weather Company subsidiary has said it is building a GPU-tastic supercomputer to model global weather conditions faster and more accurately.

The firm – under fire in the US for allegedly not having the proper permissions to collect app location data – is aiming for 3km resolution and hourly updates for 40 per cent of the Earth's surface.
