I don't know. ... Somehow I feel uncomfortable with this robodoc - but then I think my opinion is just not counting as technology is going to be implemented even further. It is only when I do not only count this single case but technology all together what makes me uneasy. Some hours ago I read about an artificial womb. And listen to stories and movies about AI & observing what's going on in hospitals and the dehumanization I sense everywhere where it actually is needed more than ever ... I start to feel resistance.
From my point of view too much technology takes over the aspects of life which are connected with birth & death. I live in a country with modern hospitals which became corporations and the working staff in the lower ranks are having tough time schedules, no time for patients; even not the doctors. In the intense care they even don't have time to accompany the dying. We are dominated by insurance policies and technology and computer handling and documenting.
So from just the standpoint of a surgery, the nano technology and less invasive methods to operate on a human body it sounds good.
But sometimes I just miss the balance and people become too cheerful about all the exciting tech-stuff and not enough people do care for the "human factor" (I dislike this term).
Nevertheless you provided something which is taking place & I appreciate that. Thank you!
