Artificial intelligence can determine the biological age of a person

According to scientists, artificial intelligence can help people live longer by determining the biological age of a person and developing an individual medical regimen.

AI Insilico Medicine specialists have developed a simple and cheap computer algorithm that can calculate the biological age of people and show whether certain lifestyle changes and medications can increase the chances of living a long and healthy life. The system, called Aging.AI, has provided accurate results for 130,000 people based on their blood samples. Experts believe that artificial intelligence will help determine the risk of developing age-related diseases such as cancer and heart disease.

It is important to note that the biological age of a person, or internal clock, may differ from the actual age. For example, a 65-year-old healthy and active woman can have a body physiologically similar to a 50-year-old woman. During the tests, the algorithm Aging.AI determined the biological age of people, based on blood samples. Each blood sample was evaluated for parameters such as cholesterol level and inflammation level. The study also showed that people who are biologically younger than their actual age are more likely to live longer. According to the developers, the Aging.AI system can also be used to assess the effects of drugs and other procedures on overall physical health by measuring the biological age before and after treatment.
