The message passing neural network (MPNN) framework is a promising tool for modeling atomic properties but is, until recently, incompatible with directional properties, such as Cartesian tensors. We propose a modified Cartesian MPNN (CMPNN) suitable for predicting atom-centered multipoles, an essential component of ab initio force fields. The efficacy of this model is demonstrated on a newly developed dataset consisting of 46 623 chemical structures and corresponding high-quality atomic multipoles, which was deposited into the publicly available Molecular Sciences Software Institute QCArchive server. We show that the CMPNN accurately predicts atom-centered charges, dipoles, and quadrupoles and that errors in the predicted atomic multipoles have a negligible effect on multipole-multipole electrostatic energies. The CMPNN is accurate enough to model conformational dependencies of a molecule's electronic structure. This opens up the possibility of recomputing atomic multipoles on the fly throughout a simulation in which they might exhibit strong conformational dependence.
