This blog post is flawed.

"Life insurers can predict when you'll die with about 98% accuracy." Is not even properly framed and is found nowhere in the cited report.

Predictions of when you will die need a range in order to be attached to a number like accuracy. The attached report is not about this but about population-level mortality trends.



I think you posted on the wrong article. I do not believe I included any life insurance claims in this dashboard
