    From what I’ve read predicting solar flares is kinda like predicting the weather but way worse. AI is actually being positioned and tested as something to improve things, but it’s still pretty hard.

    With that said though, with the resources of a large scale civilization controlling AI, could probably just skip worrying about predicting it and assume a solar flare was coming and prepare a backup plan.
