If you ignore the weird advice like running 7 marathons (which is understandable how ridiculous it is), it feels like you're showing a list of TV shows to watch. Good idea, very bad realization.

I like the summaries too, it makes me want to watch those great shows: "Delivering hilarious insider insights from the master of political satire...," "A demented serial killer taunts a retired police detective." Am I supposed to be reading 175.3 books from Tolstoi instead of watching those great shows? Is it an april's fools joke?

YSK that your HTML is broken but it's overly ridiculous. You supposedly work at Microsoft, I would expect you to do something more useful in your spare time.

> why would you ever want a medical treatment you didn't know existed

That's the American spirit! As a European, it terrifies me that anyone would want to give advice to a doctor.

> one would have to know more about your preferences

And creepy/stalking advertisers grab all they can learn about my preferences. That's the state of ads on the internet for the past 20 years and I have never seen it "advertised" (haha) as a good thing.

I tried everything and I still don't understand. Left/right/middle click everywhere, typing numbers on the keyboard, space, enter... What is happening?

And why would you want to discover commercial products (NOT "things") that you didn't knew existed? That's some form of brainwashing that I don't accept and would gladly get rid of.

That and the fact that most of those AI-generated web sites are clones of the thousand of applications that already exist, except that they now require an internet connection and a Google account for some reason.

His tool looks like a sticky note application with some Markdown inside. I'm pretty sure there are plugins that already can do this on Obsidian or any other text editor. It's funny to try to "vibe it" yourself but it's really useless in the long run since you'll be the one who will maintain it compared to the other projects with a good community behind.
