Elon Musk, founder of Tesla and SpaceX, predicted that robots will soon surpass the best human surgeons in many fields. 🦾✨
In response to a post from Mario Naufal, an investor and activist on platform X, Musk said, "Robots will outperform the best human surgeons within five years." 🕐🤖
Musk pointed to the increasing role of robots in performing precise surgeries, explaining that his company Neuralink has employed robots to implant electrodes in the brain due to the difficulty of achieving the necessary precision and speed through traditional methods. 🧠🔌
On the other hand, Mario Naufal shared a report from RTTNews discussing Medtronic's experience with its robotic system "Hugo," which has been used in 137 real surgeries, including procedures for the prostate, kidneys, and bladder. 🌐💉
The results were impressive, showing extremely low complication rates and a success rate of 98.5%, with limited conversion to traditional procedures in only two cases. 🔬✅
The report concluded by affirming that robots will not completely replace surgeons but will become an indispensable part of future surgical procedures, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of medical performance. 🤝
