Sanger sequencing was invented in 1977 and according to Google the first commercial automated system using this method was brought to market in 1987.
NGS was not a revolution in robotics. It was a revolution in biotech that enabled new and faster ways to sequence

By that definition we've had semi autonomous robots since the first car in the 1800s.

There are not that many surgical robots on the market...
There are many autonomous machines (which I guess you could call robots) in a hospital. Autoclaves, scrub machines, blood sample analyzers. But there is a big gap from that to the work physicians perform.

Unfortunately, this robot can only cut grapes.

Nice. I have Barrettes Esophagus and am risk for esophageal cancer. This is great news.

They removed a grape from a throat with robots?! Techmology these days. Incredible!

There isn’t anything particularly special about this system, it is mostly marketing. There are other systems that surgeons can use to complete the same minimally invasive procedure that have been around for a couple decades.

Thought it’s a picture from GTA at first 😂

This robot is used throughout Europe, but not for sale in the U.S.

What can be asserted without evidence can be refuted without evidence.

That robot is only as good as the operator.

I’d call that robot Dalton. From the movie Road House.

That makes sense, don't want to end up a vegetable after surgery.

I seen this in a movie, I think it was Roadhouse.

I've had a play with Versius- the arms are separate units which means you can use as many or as few as you want, and you can share them between operating theatres if e.g. your hospital has two 'brain' units. It also means you can get rid of one arm without having to move the whole robot. I haven't played with the DaVinci, but found the Versius very intuitive.

Doctors are not going to be replaced but their efficiency will be improved so we will be able to do more testing with fewer headcount. If you design these robots, you already know this happening. Easiest example is NGS workflow. A pathologist in a thread above said “obviously NGS is automated, what are we going to do count every sequence” Tens years ago (maybe 15) that’s literally what they did lol

you stated "it's all speculation" as a fact. i was agreeing with you.
