Launched by Microsoft, this website guesses your age

Mechanical Clocktail · 01-05-2015 4:06pm #1

You upload a photo, v. easily done if you have a smart phone. Just grab one from your gallery and it'll make a guess.

I was told I look 40. I'm still in my twenties, albeit in the the second half. I don't think it's programmed to deal with beards very well.. see what it guesses.
I can't post links as a new user.

The site is "how-old" followed by ".net"

It seems to constantly overestimate by 10-15 years from the photos I tried

Mint Aero · 01-05-2015 4:09pm

It said I don't look a day over 20 and I'm a handsome beast.

Has 15 year difference between 2 images I posted....

Come back to us when you are 24 and they say you look 29.

You won't be booming then

Am 29, told me I was 32. Sad times.

Edit: It got my girlfriend's age exactly right.

It was only 2 years out for me and 5 years out for my da, not sure how old my sister is but if she is older that 47 she will be happy

Penny Tration · 01-05-2015 4:19pm

Guessed 23 for me. I'm 26

It recommended me a good nursing home.

So, it was pretty accurate? :P

Mechanical Clocktail · 01-05-2015 4:23pm

I tried a different picture and it said I look 44. Apparently I look old enough to be my own father.

smash · 01-05-2015 4:23pm

I wonder what age it will think my penis is...

ceadaoin. · 01-05-2015 4:28pm

I'm 32, I got 29 and 22 for one. Can hold off on the Botox for a couple more years

Earthhorse · 01-05-2015 4:29pm

I'm 36. It said 43. Which means I can sit back and relax for the next 7 years, I'm so far ahead of myself.

You're happy that you look older?? That's such an alien concept to me at this stage.

KKkitty · 01-05-2015 4:44pm

I'm 33 and got 26. My day is made

Outkast_IRE · 01-05-2015 4:46pm

It said my dog is 6, she is actually 9.

No other pet photos work, got lucky with one

Same, I'm 26 and it told me I look 39 :pac:

I'm choosing to blame the beard too

Volovo · 01-05-2015 4:53pm

Apparently Santa Claus is 46

It seems to throw out different answers depending on light conditions, the angle the photo is taken from etc. Tested it with a few photos of myself from a recent night out. Results ranged from 4 years younger than my real age (wahey!) to 8 years older (boo!). Funnily enough my best result was with a photo taken towards the end of the night, when I was on my 10th or so beer. Perhaps that's the key to looking young.
