The Year Your Body Become a SaaS Platform
Remember when healthcare was about, you know, health? 2025 was the year biotech companies discovered the subscription model. Why cure something once when you can treat it monthly forever? The big breakthrough wasn't medicalβit was financial engineering. Your pancreas is now a 'recurring revenue stream.'
AI: Your New Doctor, Therapist, and Unqualified Nutritionist
Artificial intelligence infiltrated medicine this year with the subtlety of a bull in a pharmacy. We now have AI that can diagnose rare diseases (accuracy: 73%), recommend treatments (based on what your insurance will pay), and suggest lifestyle changes (drink more water, apparently). The most popular health app of 2025 was 'MediChat,' which combines WebMD's alarmism with ChatGPT's confidence about things it definitely doesn't understand.
The real innovation? AI that can bill insurance companies with 98% accuracy while understanding human symptoms with about 62% accuracy. Priorities!
Weight-Loss Drugs: Now For Everything!
What started as diabetes medication became 2025's Swiss Army knife of pharmaceuticals. Can't focus? Weight-loss drug. Feeling sad? Weight-loss drug. Existential dread about climate change? Definitely weight-loss drug. The side effects include 'not being able to afford groceries' and 'occasionally vomiting,' but hey, you'll look great in those jeans you can't afford either.
The most telling moment came when a startup announced they were developing a weight-loss drug for pets. Because nothing says 'healthy relationship with food' like medicating your golden retriever for having normal dog behaviors.
Gene Therapy: Customize Your Kids (Terms and Conditions Apply)
2025 saw gene editing move from 'medical necessity' to 'lifestyle choice.' One company now offers 'designer baby' packages starting at $250,000, with premium add-ons like 'musical aptitude' ($75,000 extra) and 'resistance to common colds' (only $30,000!). The fine print mentions they can't guarantee results and you waive the right to sue if your child turns out to be, you know, a normal human.
Meanwhile, actual genetic diseases affecting real people continued to be priced at 'if you have to ask, you can't afford it' levels. Priorities, people!
Neurotech: Because Your Thoughts Aren't Private Enough
Brain-computer interfaces had their breakthrough year, which mostly meant they went from 'dangerous experimental procedure' to 'dangerous consumer product.' The leading device promises to 'optimize your focus' by zapping your prefrontal cortex. Early adopters report increased productivity and also occasional moments of forgetting their own names.
The privacy policy is a masterpiece of modern tech: 'We may collect data about your thoughts, dreams, and subconscious desires to better serve you targeted advertising.' Finally, ads that know what you really want!
Quick Summary
- What: A sarcastic review of 2025's biotech 'advancements' where everything biological became a tech product
- Impact: Your health decisions are now influenced by algorithms that probably trained on questionable Reddit threads
- For You: Learn which 'innovations' are actually useful versus which ones just want your data and subscription fee
