Predicting when a person will die is something that is impossible for anyone to determine. However, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology is now being used to predict death.
Yes, an AI app called Death Clock has been launched, and it has become quite popular among users. Since its launch in July, the app has been downloaded over 125,000 times.
The AI model used in this app has been trained using data from more than 1,200 research reports on average life expectancy. These reports involved over 53 million individuals. The app predicts the date of death by analyzing various factors such as diet, exercise, smoking, stress levels, and sleep patterns.
According to the app’s developer, Brent Fransen, the app is designed to encourage people to take better care of themselves. It displays a “death day card,” but its primary purpose is to help people focus on their health.
Beyond personal curiosity, the app could prove useful in various fields, or at least that’s the claim by its developers. Life expectancy estimates are important for financial and economic forecasting, such as planning for pensions and other benefits for elderly individuals.
Fransen explained that the new algorithms used in the Death Clock app could revolutionize financial planning. He believes that predicting the date of death could become the most significant date in a person’s life, as it would help them take steps towards better health and financial planning.
The app also provides various tips to improve health. AI technology estimates life expectancy based on a user’s habits and then presents a countdown to their “date of death.”
The app is free to use, but users will need to pay a fee to access the live countdown feature.
