I'll take a robot over a DEI hire.

Would not appear to be the case here. If humans are unable to have the same precision it would be pretty obvious that your statement is false.

If you work on a computer your job will be obsolete in 2-5 years - so plan accordingly

Just because robots can’t do everything better doesn’t mean they won’t do most things better.

If I'm as big a fan of AI is the next guy and I'm all for advancement. I'm not one of these people that's afraid of computers doing jobs. But every human body is a little late for the next. It's not like working on a car. Blood vessels aren't in the exact same place. There's not even necessarily the same exact number in certain situations. The algorithm would have to make advanced chess programs look like Skip-Bo. I'm sure the day will come but five years seems exceptionally optimistic

Not yet. Ai is constantly evolving though. It will eventually get to the point where it can act on the fly in life and death situations...at a much more efficient pace than humans.


Probably not for several decades though.

You will still need a surgeon there to make sure the robot doesn't mess up.

In a 30 minute procedure, the device can clear the body's blood of up to 94% of live sepsis bacteria, allowing the body's immune system to avoid being overwhelmed, giving patients who develop sepsis from an injury or surgery an expected 90% improvement in survival rate. No doctors will perform any work. It'll all be set up by trained technicians and then run by AI.


All for the low, low cost of $90,000

Elon is deep state as he pushes for AI take over. I'm sorry to break your hearts. I'm greatful he helped Trump win but make no mistake this dude has his own agenda. Look up his grandfather his ties and where Elon was educated.

Yes, a robot with advanced AI can calculate millions of scenarios and millions of outcomes in less than a second. AI is not new. They have had it for decades. What do you think auto pilot in a jet is? So yes, computers with AI will be able to out perform any human at everything.

Has this device cleared medical trials? I'm curious what the device is called. My wife is medical and I hear her talk about sepsis periodically. She deals with a large number post trauma surgeries.

I don't know that AI taking over is a concept directly tied to deep state.

My observation of Elon is that he wants to push technology all the way to its limits and believes its role is significantly underutilized at this point.

I'm not saying that he won't use his good favor with Trump to try to get favorable legislature or funding, but Deep State indicates that he has malicious intent and is in favor of applying funds for things that have no public interest and the funds don't even make it to the cause anyways.

But, TDS or even a distaste for Elon will make you argue irrationally at times. It's one of the symptoms.

I’m reading this in doctors office having Mohs surgery ( skin cancer 2nd time) I’ve already had prostate cancer and beat it. I really hope someone or something finds a cure. If not for me for my kids/ grandkids. I’d hate for them to go through any of this
