Elon Musk on Robots: Robots are also creating new records of success in the medical field. In this episode, billionaire Alan Musk said on Monday that the robot has the ability to overtake the best human surgeon within five years. The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX stated that their brain-computer interface company ‘Neuralink’ was dependent on the robot for brain-computers electrode inspection. It was impossible to do this work with humans.
Robot will overtake good human surgeon- Musk
Musk wrote in a post on the social media platform X, “The robots will overtake the good human surgeon within a few years and will overtake the Best Human Surgeon within five years.” He said, “Neurolink had to use robots for brain-computer electrode inspection, as this work was impossible as the speed and accuracy for humans to achieve the required speed and accuracy.”
The post came in response to a second post of Mario Naufal, in which Mario highlighted the recent success of robotics in the medicine of America -based medical device company Medtronic. Naufal said that Medtronic has successfully established its Hugo robotic system with 137 real surgery to fix prostate, kidney and bladder. The results of the surgery were better than the expectation of doctors and the success rate of more than 98 percent was seen.
Talk about brain-computer interface technology
Talking about the complexity rate, it was 3.7 percent for prostate surgery, 1.9 percent for kidney surgery and 17.9 percent for bladder surgery, which was quite low. Only two out of 137 surgery needed to return to regular surgery. Meanwhile, Musk’s ‘Nuralink’ is currently engaged in clinical testing of its brain-computer interface technology.
The company aims to create a brain control tool for paralyzed or neurodogenorative patients. So far, only three people have successfully received ‘neuralink brain implants’. Earlier, Musk had said in the X post in 2024, “If all goes well, people with ‘neurolink brain implants’ will be in hundreds in a few years. Perhaps in 5 years, the number of such people will be thousands and 10 years in 10 years.”
