Most people want to know how long their life will be but do not want to know when they will die. But some people are also interested in this. In such a situation, an artificial intelligence tool (AI Tool) has emerged, claiming it can predict when someone will die.
Information about this AI tool has been given in a report by the New York Post. Sune Lehmann, a professor at the Technical University of Denmark, has developed it. This AI, named Life2vec, analyzes various aspects of a person’s life (income, profession, place of residence, etc.) and estimates his life expectancy. It is said that its predictions have proved to be approximately 75 per cent correct.
Research Was Done On 60 Lakh People
According to the report, Lehmann’s team had researched 6 million people in Denmark between 2008 and 2020 for this AI tool. In this research, an attempt was made to predict through life2vec which people are expected to live for at least four more years between January 1, 2016. In this, the events of people’s lives were made like a sequence compared to forming sentences from words in a language.
Our wild new paper “Using sequences of life-events to predict human lives” is finally out!!

This Is How He Predicts
The accuracy rate of this AI tool was entirely accurate. It had predicted almost without any mistake that people would die by the year 2020. Its accuracy rate was more than 75 per cent. In this study, the factors causing early death were also mentioned. These factors were mental health-related problems or job, etc. At the same time, factors like higher income and leadership roles were associated with longer life.
This AI Tool Has Not Become Public
According to Lehmann, given ethical values, none of the participants in this study were told about the prognosis of their lives. This AI tool is not yet available to the general public or corporations. Still, Lehmann and his team want to work more on it to understand how this AI can identify the factors that influence people without compromising privacy.
