Decided to go for the bait and tried it. First time it got my age exactly, next couple of photos was slightly off but still close enough. I was surprised actually - usually when I try stuff like this it's way off.

Spot on for me. Said 33 in a photo when I was 33. Photo was clean shaven, straight on.

Said 35 for photo when I was 34, however it guessed that when in the photo I had beard, and side on to camera.

It guessed my age correctly on a passport photo. And ten years younger on my avatar (which is about right but still off a couple of years).

Its faulty. Gave me as being 10 years younger than I am.  Would expect a couple of years either way but 10 years means must be faulty

I've had a play around. Seems its spot on with clear photos, and up to 20 years out if photos are grainy, such as digital photos of film camera photos.

It put me three years older than I actually am :(

Edit: A second photo put me 13 years younger than I am. That makes me feel better :P

Yeah, be happy.  I'm 49, stupid thing reckons I'm 66 frown.  Photo of my 17 year old daughter came back with 44.




Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.

Yeah, must be faulty. I would have thought at least mid 60s to be accurate.

Mine comes in a few years younger than my actual age, based on a fairly good photo.

2 pictures from the same moment so same lighting and proportion
- non smiley shot = 55
- smiley shot = 27

 

At 41, what I'm taking out of this is that I should smile more.
