Autonomous robot surgeon removes organs with 100% success rate

We're a step closer to entering an operating theater without any human life besides ours, following the world's first surgery performed by a robot responding and learning in real time. Its precision and skill matched that of experienced surgeons.

This story is important because while robots have been replacing low skill jobs for years, this robot is performing a highly paid, high skill task - surgery - with a 100% success rate. Replacing human surgeons with machines like this could yield enormous benefits, the biggest being potentially universal access to world class surgical care. Getting rid of the human surgeon is a feature, not a bug. The quicker we can do it, the better.

So this robot operated on a human-like model under the guidance of a surgeon.
I think you're jumping the gun in your celebration of robotic surgery.

From a model, with human guidance. I could probably do that too.

Should we be concerned? Ever 'operated' on a neighbour's cat?

I got a robot assisted prostetectomy. For prostate cancer

It was kind of amazing. They poked a couple of holes, but no incision. I drove my self home the next morning, didnt miss a day of work.
