Can a computer tell you when you're going to die?


Everyone is faced with the prospect of death, though not knowing when the time will come can be unsettling for many. "We found machine-learned algorithms were significantly more accurate in predicting death than the standard prediction models developed by a human expert." The first is known as 'deep-learning,' in which information-centric networks help a computer learn from past instances. They took the conclusions from the two different AI models, compared them to the more commonly used 'Cox regression' (which is based on age and gender) and found the returns of the AI models were far superior. Weng echoed Kai's sentiments, adding that the work has been going on for years to aid humanity.
