I vibe coded an AI tool to help my mom fight stage 4 cancer. It helped us catch errors in her treatment and let her die with dignity.
THE SO WHAT
A single caregiver 'vibe coding' a symptom tracker that catches treatment errors is a brutal indictment of current clinical QA and a preview of bottom-up health tooling.

Applied AIMedvi, glorified by the NYT as a two-employee startup with $1B+ in revenue, is a warning about how AI can be misused for shady business and marketing practices (Gary Marcus/Marcus on AI)
AI-native businesses are now a cover story for old-school gray-zone marketing and arbitrage — the Medvi narrative shows how easy it is to launder sketchy unit economics as ‘AI magic.’ If your GTM or vendor relies on opaque AI claims instead of verifiable funnels, margins, and controls, assume the risk is reputational as much as financial.
Applied AICopilot is ‘for entertainment purposes only,’ according to Microsoft’s terms of use
When the terms say 'entertainment only,' the liability model is clear—trust is on you, not the vendor. If you're wiring Copilot into workflows with regulatory, financial, or safety exposure, you need your own verification layer and audit trail, not comfort from the brand name.
Applied AISuno is a music copyright nightmare
AI music platforms that 'don't permit' copyrighted material but rely on automated filters are effectively outsourcing legal risk to users and rightsholders. If you're building on these rails, assume content takedowns, retroactive licensing costs, and dataset discovery requests as part of your operating model.
Applied AIWhy You Should Ignore AI FOMO
AI assistants that add coordination overhead and verification work are just new inboxes — not leverage. If your team reports more burnout after an AI rollout, you don’t need more tools, you need fewer workflows and clearer ‘no-AI’ zones.
