Digital Swamp Log - Q2 2025

Dear reader,

Welcome to the first log from the swamp! This digital swamp went live mid-May, and showed a lot of growth. I am excited to be moving away from my old website, but it still needs to be removed.

Recap of the quarter:

• Highs: visual ai in healthcare 2025, contact automation
• Lows: vibe coding pitfalls

Lastly, I leave you with a link to Maggie Appleton's talk on "The Expanding Dark Forest and Generative AI" - link. If you are interested in keeping space for humans on the internet, you are not alone.

Love,
Pao
