Ok, we’ll admit it, we just couldn’t resist! Yes, the #HowOldRobot is in its beta stage, but we wanted to know what it would make our of our favorite famous Jews. Here are the results and well… #HowOldRobot still has some kinks to work out.

A fine young man – Mel Brooks (88):

Bust (immortal), Benjamin Netanyahu (65) and Barrack Obama (53)

Benjamin Netanyahu may look dejected in this pic, but at least #HowOldRobot thinks he’s younger than Obama!

Amy Schumer (33)

Good job, #HowOldRobot

Larry David (67)

Feeling young, eh Larry?

But #HowOldRobot’s most grievous offense is:

Ruth Bader Ginsburg (82)

No matter how many years you may have shaved off her, how dare you think Notorious RBG is one of the weaker sex! We reject your analysis!

How old does #HowOldRobot think you are?

A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
