To ask those that use chat GPT regularly to ask it what age it calculates you are?!

I use Chat GPT regularly about all kinds of things and asked it earlier what age it places me at. It was 2 years out (older) … to those that don’t use it no need to respond it’s not a debate over using it - but for those that do it’s interesting to see where it places you and why! Mine used children’s ages, chat discussion topics and taste in interiors/clothing etc to decide on my age apparently

It guessed 29… I’m late 40s! BUT thinking about it, my teenage daughter may well have been using it recently so that probably confused it! And actually averages out pretty accurately!

Worriednanof1 · 27/08/2026 21:28

Mine thinks i'm 19, i'm 57 🤣😅🤣

MudandMoet · 27/08/2026 21:22

‘Ooh, based purely on our conversations and the general life-stage clues you’ve dropped over time, I’d guess 34. 😄
My range would be 32–36, but if you made me put £20 on one number, I’d go 34’

Im 46! (A young 46 if I say so myself!)

Chuffingcupboard · 27/08/2026 20:47

Based on my "travel and cooking interests" it thinks I am 62. Am 60 so thought that was pretty good, especially as I don't use it much

Ksjushona · 27/08/2026 20:44

It guessed 34-36, I will be 34 in November 😉

CrikeyMajikey · 27/08/2026 20:40

Mine said 22 and I’m 58!

KnewYearKnewMe · 27/08/2026 20:00

Mine said 38 and I’m 55!

gratefulmezze · 27/08/2026 19:57

It calculates I'm 4 years younger than I am

Manename · 27/08/2026 19:56

Got me three years younger based on writing style and background. I don’t who what Chat gpt setting I have but it can’t see other threads do I had to pick a random one.

TheWytch · 27/08/2026 19:55

Wildly out!

Well, I was spectacularly wrong.
In my defence, you have an unusually broad range of interests and a depth of knowledge that made me assume you were considerably older. You also have a wonderfully no-nonsense style that I apparently interpreted as “woman who has seen some things”.

DressDilemma · 27/08/2026 19:24

8 years younger than I am.

SulkingInTheCatio · 27/08/2026 14:37

It guessed me 6 years younger than I am and said it only put me that high because it knows what I do for a job (senior professional) so assumed I would be early/mid 40s. Thought i couldn’t be older because of my energy and interests.

thebabewiththepowder · 27/08/2026 14:04

It said 39. I’m 34. Apparently I write like someone who has been an adult for quite a while.

That's a good thing! I think dh will come out as a teenager, must get him to do it.

123becauseicouldntthinkofone · 27/08/2026 14:23

Mine said 16-20 because of the vibe.....i am 48 ha ha ha!!!!!!

dancehysterical22 · 27/08/2026 14:21

I'm a 39 year old teacher and mine gave me 'mid to late 50s' haha

Joyful26 · 27/08/2026 14:13

Nooo it got mine one month out (have just had my birthday)
based on me having teenagers and my work experience, and my attitude to money work and responsibilities.

I should ask it how old I look 🤣🤣

LittleJustice · 27/08/2026 14:10

Haha 😄 If you're asking me to guess rather than use anything you've previously told me, I'd put you at 55 or 56.

You give me very much mid-50s energy — but in a good way: self-aware, lively, still curious and impulsive, but with a fair amount of life experience behind you.

If I had to put money on one number: 56. 😏

It's right but I think I have also already told it.

Favouritefruits · 27/08/2026 14:05

It’s guess what very accurate!

thebabewiththepowder · 27/08/2026 14:04

DramaAlpaca · 27/08/2026 14:03

Mine thought I was 18. I'm 62! In fairness, I don't use it much so it didn't have much to go on.

BillieWiper · 27/08/2026 14:02

I just asked Google AI 'can you guess my age'. And it replied that it couldn't. I tried to get it to do this before and it kept on refusing!

Wtafdidido · 27/08/2026 14:01

It got me right and told me my date of birth

Gengha · 27/08/2026 14:01

Thinks I am 48

I am 53

SeaGlassDreamer · 27/08/2026 13:58

Mine knows exactly. When I first started using it I uploaded a photo and asked how old it thought it was and it guessed 20 years younger! 18 months on and it knows me very well - I uploaded a photo the other day and asked how old I looked and it said you look your age but your skin looks a little dehydrated you need to take care of yourself. No flattery now we’ve got to know each other!

tealandteal · 27/08/2026 13:49

Mine knew exactly but I had been asking it about increasing running to teain for a half marathon so it had asked as part of that.
