    The only robot surgeons I know of are like the divinci system where a doctor runs it but it allows for smaller incisions and very small and precise movements. I like that one.

      I’ve had it used on me. Can confirm, it’s a massive improvement over human-hand-scale operation.

        yeah I had it to. Had seen it before and was super psyched to have the option. The bussiness thing is wild though as the hospital is basically buying so many uses rather than owning the machine.
