A new artificial intelligence model can predict a person's biological age from a selfie.

The model, dubbed FaceAge , estimates how old a person looks compared to their chronological age.

The tool could help doctors decide on the best course of treatment for diseases like cancer.

The older a person looked, regardless of their biological age, the lower their chances of living longer.
