Apparently it's convinced I look ~15+ years older than I am (52 on one of the ones I tried o.O) Perhaps glasses and facial hair are not a good combination for it.

I'm 48 and get asked by taxi drivers if I have a Gold Card, so no way do I want to try this!

I put up a picture of a group of ten year olds and ages ranged from 7 to 20 something.

I used this picture montage I've taken over the last four months to track changes during weight loss. I'm actually 40. I know some people have commented that losing weight has made me look bit younger but 27 is pushing it rather a lot! Maybe it's more accurate for higher definition photos?

Using two fairly average photos, it has picked me as 44 when I am actually 30. A third has now picked me as 47. It is consistent in my case at least!
The demo says it is an example of machine learning using Azure, I would have thought there should be some kind of feedback loop to improve the algorithm though. Even something like "too high" and "too low" to avoid the stop collecting my life brigade's objections should help it converge on accuracy. Maybe that was a bit much for a quick demo thrown together to showcase Azure. It apparently took a day to get it done.

Bah, i thought taking off my glasses may help, it picked me as 50.

Said 46 I'm 55. So I'll take that as correct and not tempt fate by trying a second time

Brilliant way to build a worldwide mugshot database for free and have everyone willingly submit their pics... Am I the only one creeped out by this?

I haven't been clean-shaven since I was 18 and I'm 37 this month. The beard is against me on this one. It guessed me (with various photos) at 27, 47 and 56.
