US and Danish scientists developed Life2vec, an AI chatbot that has a 78% accuracy rate in predicting mortality. The financial and life expectancy prediction tool is being quickly imitated by bogus websites.
The makers of Life2vec caution that users who are naive are likely to fall for these phoney websites, which bear little resemblance to the genuine chatbot. The technology is being used to develop fake websites that target personal data, with the ability to predict financial results and life expectancy.
Although death may become frighteningly digital in the future, it is still important to safeguard personal information and be on the lookout for potential scams.A mortality prediction tool called Life2vec has issued a warning about phoney websites that propagate viruses and steal personal data.
Based on demographic and health information from six million Danes between the ages of 35 and 65, the tool’s accuracy rate in forecasting death is 78%. Professor Sune LEHMANN is the study’s lead author. It highlights AI’s ability to forecast financial success and health consequences.
According to the makers of Life2vec, they have no connection to these or any other organisations that make use of their technology.
