I'm a T1D and tbh it's not that hard to manage, I just wouldn't need that. But for kids or the elderly, I see a use case.
The hardest to learn was that an unhealthy lifestyle resulted in a diabetes that was harder to manage. Too much carbs, not enough exercise, etc. After adjusting my lifestyle, it became quite easy.
The most pain, in my experience, comes from the discrepancy between the CGM - measured value and the prick-test value, even when accounting for time lag. I've used several CGMs and they've all been wildly off sometimes. I have a few T1D acquaintances who relied on their CGM alone and have significantly improved their HbA1c after accounting for that.
The risk to benefits ratio of introducing a language model to interpret so clear signals is nowhere near justified.
Monitoring and analytics is important, but it is a solved problem. A language model will only be able to hallucinate about the relationship between meals and glycemic response. At best it does no harm, at worst it can directly misinform.

Maybe that information is useful to you.

And how do you deal with AI hallucinations?

Probably something like SVM for warnings.
Unless the whole purpose is just daily reports.
Do you find the analytics actually helps? I.e. a lot of this will depend on what you ate and whether or not you logged it?
