#HowOldRobot: Microsoft site guesses age based on uploaded photo

You'll either get an ego boost or run out and get Botox thanks to Microsoft's latest website.

According to Microsoft, the How-Old program uses "state-of-the-art cloud-based face algorithms" to estimate gender and age. All you have to do is upload a photo and its facial recognition system determines something scary: how old you REALLY look. 

People that get unflattering results shouldn't worry though. It's not an exact science and since it's a demo service, How-Old.net has been giving some pretty ridiculously inaccurate ages (like George Bush has been determined to be 911-years-old and Madonna is 31).

The technology is still being tested but in the meantime, have fun uploading as many photos as you want in order to make yourself feel good.
