Topic Reading-Vol.1497-5/17/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Would you let a robot perform your surgery by itself?
Surgeons are humans. Not all the surgeons are equal. Some are extremely good and others aren’t. Then, which would you prefer, an unexperienced surgeon or an autonomous, robot to perform a surgery to replace some part of your tissue? It requires not only preciseness to cut and stich the tissue but also judgement and adjustment as surgery goes on because tissues are highly volatile.
Now, surgery robots equipped with today’s Ai technology can perform such complicated task, and do it better than humans.
Though the process is performed by a robot, a live surgeon attends the surgery. This means that the quality of the surgery is more standardized by human-only surgery.
Another benefit of this autonomous robot surgery is that certain surgeries can be conducted anywhere anytime.
It seems that more robots will be seen not only in hotels and restaurants but also in hospitals.
Enjoy reading and thinking of the power and potential of self-learning robots and drones.
