A robot trained on videos of surgeries performed a lengthy phase of a gallbladder removal without human help. The robot operated for the first time on a lifelike patient, and during the operation, responded to and learned from voice commands from the team—like a novice surgeon working with a mentor.

The robot performed unflappably across trials and with the expertise of a skilled human surgeon, even during unexpected scenarios typical in real life medical emergencies.

        I understand what you are saying is intended as „if they trust their product they should use it themselves“ and I agree with that

        I do think that undergoing an operation that a person doesnt need isnt ethical however

        Then it saw Inner Space and invented nanobots. So you win some, you lose some.
