Robots will surpass good human surgeons within a few years and the best human surgeons within ~5 years.
@Neuralink had to use a robot for the brain-computer electrode insertion, as it was impossible for a human to achieve the required speed and precision.
🚨 ROBOTS CAN NOW HELP WITH SURGERY — AND THEY’RE ACTUALLY GOOD AT IT
Medtronic tested its Hugo robot in 137 real surgeries — fixing prostates, kidneys, and bladders — and the results were better than doctors expected.
Complication rates were super low: just 3.7% for prostate surgeries, 1.9% for kidney surgeries, and 17.9% for bladder surgeries, all beating safety goals from years of research.
The robot got a 98.5% success rate, way above the 85% goal — meaning it didn’t just pass the test, it basically set the curve.
Out of 137 surgeries, only 2 needed to switch back to regular surgery — 1 because of a robot glitch, and 1 because of a tricky patient case.
This doesn’t mean robots are replacing surgeons tomorrow, but it does mean your next doctor might have a very expensive metal sidekick.

Tesla Optimus robots, after learning that Elon Musk will power them with super-advanced Grok AI and send them to Mars on the world’s most powerful rocket, Starship. https://t.co/Aby4vebaIY
the companies that will truly bring humanoid robots to consumers and dominate the market likely aren't the current players. they might emerge from vacuum or pool cleaner manufacturers instead.
