Every patient, and every case is different. No A.I. machine could handle all the nuances and multiple causative factors that determine the outcome of an anesthetic. Also, good anesthesia is part art and part experience and knowledge. A A.I. robot could never master this.

Manual dexterity, complex procedural skills, interpersonal skills, ability to comfort and reduce fear on part of the patient, rapid decision making based on knowledge, combined with intuition.
