What is AI Face Aging?
TL;DR
Entertainment technology that adds aging or de-aging changes to a face photo with AI to generate an older future face or a younger past face. Also called an old age filter.
AI Face Aging: Definition & Explanation
AI face aging (old age filter) analyzes a face photo and adds aging-related features — skin wrinkles and sagging, graying and thinning hair — to depict a future face predictively, or estimates and recreates a younger face. It became widely known when FaceApp's aging filter went viral on social media. Tools like FaceApp, AgingBooth, and Reface are representative, with some combining aging and de-aging with face animation or face swap. The most important caution is that AI face aging is entertainment only and does not show, medically or scientifically, that you'll 'really look like this' in the future. Also, uploading face photos involves privacy, so check whether the service is trustworthy and how photos are handled and deleted, and never edit or publish others' face photos without their consent.
