T1D Education Platform - John Pemberton | Ep. 14

from Tomorrow's Medicine · host Arseniy Arsentyev

In this episode, John Pemberton — a diabetes dietitian, type 1 diabetic, and creator of The Glucose Never Lies — shares his seven-year journey from building diabetes education guides to developing Grace, an AI agent designed to deliver expert-level type 1 diabetes education tailored to each user's pace and needs.John breaks down Grace's three-layer architecture (consensus guidelines as the source of truth, his lived clinical experience as the delivery layer, and a Nassim Taleb-inspired philosophy of black swan caution, via negativa, and skin in the game) and explains why the tool is intentionally designed to get users 80% of the way there, leaving the critical final 20% to human-to-human connection.The conversation also dives into the messy economics of building AI in healthcare, how Grace will be funded so it stays free for patients, and a candid look at which jobs AI will reshape — and why great communicators, not information jockeys, are the currency of tomorrow's medicine.Contact Me:Website: https://aarsentyev.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arsarsentyev/Other Platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tommedpodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3pRrtIXfcyjGey4VShawKtApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/tomorrows-medicine/id1803923096
