It's a morbidly curious question: How will I die, and when?
Yau's simulation is based on the CDC's Underlying Cause of Death database, which shows data for how people in the US died between 1999 and 2014. The CDC bases its records on death certificates, which show a single cause of death.
These causes of death fit into a bunch of categories published by the World Health Organization, called the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD).
Yau's simulation looks at how and when other people like you have died, and uses that in a predictive way to show you the most likely cause of your own death.
When you enter your race, age, and sex in Yau's simulation, you're shown a series of dots. As the simulation runs its course, it shows you getting older.
