FaceAge: How Your Selfie Could Predict Cancer Outcomes
In this episode of "AI & Beyond," we explore FaceAge, a groundbreaking deep learning algorithm developed by Mass General Brigham that estimates biological age from simple facial photographs. Research shows that cancer patients often appear biologically older than their chronological age, and this "FaceAge" prediction strongly correlates with survival outcomes across multiple cancer types. Impressively, FaceAge outperforms clinicians in predicting short-term life expectancy, offering an objective tool to inform treatment decisions. Beyond cancer, this technology holds promise for assessing…
