Surgeons won't be automated for a long time. Also, do you really think people would trust a robot? I sure wouldn't. All it takes is one malfunction or software error and you're finished.

We already have startups like Star, which want to automate and democratize surgeries. Even though we aren't there yet, I think that automated surgery can increase surgery quality while driving down prices.
