That's pretty frightening. Hopefully, there will be a whole ton of good trials before this actually rolls out. Perhaps it will improve, but right now I don't think AI is trustworthy enough to use for more than relatively trivial things. I certainly wouldn't trust it in things where it could kill me.

> tests on dead pig organs do not test the robots’ capacity to react to a patient moving and breathing, blood running in the field of operation, an inadvertent injury, smoke from cauterisation or fluid on the camera lens

Really cool tech being demoed here but calling it "surgery" is a bit of a stretch considering how much of surgery time involves dealing with hemostasis, and "the dead don't bleed."
