Researchers in Denmark have developed an algorithm called life2vec, which uses artificial intelligence and data from millions of people to predict various aspects of an individual's life. The algorithm analyzes variables such as birth, education, social benefits, and work schedules to identify patterns and relationships. While the reliability of the algorithm in predicting outcomes such as death and relocation has been high, the researchers emphasize that it is still in the research phase and not yet ready for use outside of a research setting. Concerns have been raised about privacy and the potential misuse of such technology. The researchers hope that their project will contribute to a public understanding of AI algorithms.
