Anyone can put an AI coach on the App Store. The hard part is everything under the waterline. In Episode 6 of The Brick Lounge, Giuseppe Barbalinardo, VP of Data Science & AI at Tonal, talks about how Tonal turns hundreds of terabytes of motion and performance data into strength training that adapts to you, right down to a single rep.

We explore Giuseppe's path from simulating quantum materials on supercomputers to modeling the human body, and a stack that runs from a millisecond-fast spotter written in C all the way to multi-month training plans. Plus what it took to launch Tia, Tonal's AI coach, to every member, how a study of 20,000 people more than halved the error in predicting reps in reserve, and why data lineage is becoming one of the biggest questions in AI.

Being eligible for care isn't the same as needing it. In Episode 5 of The Brick Lounge, Anmol Madan, Founder & CEO of RadiantGraph, and RJ Ellis, Senior Director of Data Science & Strategy, talk about helping healthcare organizations find and reach the people who actually need care, at the right time, so they don't fall through the cracks.

We explore why a model that gets things wrong only 2% of the time isn't the success you think it is when working in healthcare and why getting the edge cases right matters so much more. Plus how friendly AI voice agents are helping people with high-stigma conditions book their first appointment, and Anmol's new book, The Machines Will See You Now.

Anyone can build a web agent these days, the hard part is knowing whether it actually did what you wanted. In this Episode 4 of The Brick Lounge, Zach Richardson, Head of AI at TinyFish unpacks what it really takes to ship a web agent that's fast, cheap, and reliable at scale.

Zach walks through TinyFish's agent, Mako — from a 15-year path through actuarial science, the Navy, and the whole evolution of AI to the architecture decisions that let a specialized model outperform frontier models on the web. We get into what it means to build a web-native model that thinks in elements and positions instead of text.
