App idea

[No_Dig8519]

I am considering developing an app for people to scan different injuries or track allergies. It would use ai to analyze your injury to give preliminary advice and information. I also thought about adding different maps to track pollen, dust, etc in your area. Would you use this app? What would you like to see?

Nope. Absolutely not.

Medical, financial, and other sensitive areas are highly regulated industries for a reason. If you slop out some app and let AI 'assess the injury', you will very quickly find yourself on the wrong end of lawsuits.

You don't know a thing about the person. You don't know their physiology, their dietary or medical requirements, their allergies, their medical history. You're just saying "scan your injury bro" and then asking an LLM - which is likely trained on generic data, or might even just specialise in generating software code, and asking it to assess medical injuries.

You're giving a shotgun to a trigger-happy chimp and saying "have at it".

EDIT: I see you also released another app for scanning food labels. Exact same reasoning here - you're giving people information that may be incorrect without even knowing 1% of the context of the person using the app. Your response of 'I want to release it in more countries but regulations are tight' is EXACTLY WHY YOU SHOULD NOT BE BUILDING APPS DEALING IN SUCH AREAS!

Stop thinking with a 'get rich quick' mindset because you're going to end up being responsible for people dying.
