About this listen
When we launched vitiligo.ai back in 2023, the idea was simple: make reliable information about vitiligo available to anyone, anywhere, in any language. What could possibly go wrong, right?
Fast forward two years — turns out AI can sound smart, act caring, and still be utterly clueless. It imitates empathy but doesn’t actually care. It oozes confidence but often has no idea what it’s talking about.
