FaceApp's aging filter has people comparing their selfies to pictures of their parents
FaceApp's trending new aging filter has people comparing AI-aged photos of themselves with their parents' photos. Using neural networks, the app guesses where you'll wrinkle, where your hairline will recede to, and what parts of your face will sag over the years.
Twitter users compared their FaceApp selfies with photos of their actual parents, or posed next to them. For many — most of whom are men — the results are uncanny.

You can download FaceApp on Google Play and the App Store. If you don't want to go through the hassle, though, you could also take a look at your future face by FaceTiming with your parents (or talking to them in person — gasp).
