Robots are already successfully performing surgeries unassisted, despite a license being required in that field.

I do think barred lawyers will have a role for quite a while, but it is plausible it shrinks to oversight.

Yeah, plus one on this one, extremely curious to hear as well.

I am aware that remote robot surgeries have been a thing for quite a bit of time, but this is the first time ever I am hearing about unassisted robot surgeries being a thing at all.

A follow-up question: if an unassisted robot surgery goes wrong, who is liable? I know we have a similar dilemma with self-driving cars, but I was under the impression that things are way more regulated and strict in the realm of healthcare.
