AI can predict when you’ll keel over and die clutching at your chest from a heart attack better than doctors can, apparently.

A group of researchers scraped together dataset from over 80,000 patients from CALIBER, a large clinical research project studying mortality in England, and used machine learning methods to find common patterns in the data to predict the likelihood of a patient dying from coronary heart disease. The results have been published in the PLOS One journal.
