I was imagining that they were going to acquire a large dataset of DNA sequences paired with photos of the patient and then train a neural network to predict one from the other. I don't think that would be particularly successful either (you would need a tremendous amount of data and DNA sequencing is expensive), but it would be interesting to see the results.
