Elon Musk has predicted that robots will replace even the best human surgeons within the next five years. The billionaire tech entrepreneur pointed out that machines are already capable of carrying out operations considered impossible for mere humans to perform.
In a post on X on Saturday, Musk suggested that in just a few years, robots will surpass good human surgeons and will beat the best doctors within about five years.
RT reports: He noted that his Neuralink biotech company has already had to rely on robot surgeons to carry out the brain-computer electrode insertion of brain chips because the required speed and precision is impossible for a human to achieve.
Musk’s comments came in response to a post by popular X influencer Mario Nawfal, who quoted an article about the rising success of robot surgeons such as the Medtronic ‘Hugo’.
It is reported that the robot has already been tested in 137 real surgeries such as fixing prostates, kidneys, and bladders.
The results were better than doctors expected, Nawfal said, noting that the complication rates were 3.7% for prostate surgeries, 1.9% for kidney operations, and 17.9% for bladder procedures.
The robots got a 98.5% success rate, way above the 85% goal, the post claimed, adding that out of the 137 surgeries, only two needed to be taken back over by real doctors due to a glitch and because of a tricky patient case.
Previously, Musk suggested that brain-computer interfaces like those being developed by Neuralink would replace technologies such as cell phones. Neuralink has already successfully implanted its brain chip – about the size of a coin – in three patients.

Mk Ultra robots ? The final solution? If they can manufacture a mechanical robot that well now then how well have they been able to manufacture people .
A mechanical robots better though because it doesn’t need wages food clothing shelter anything Just maintenance.
People have no idea about them ,most people Very very few understand even a bit, per capita .
I see neurolink doing incredible things for paralyzed, blind, or other disabled people but I don’t want to be tied to my phone permanently if i don’t have a need like that. Sometimes you just want to turn it off and put it down.
I don’t. I see them doing incredible things at bio-engineering people into remote controlled robots. And only really as Guinea pigs in their research to create artificial life.
All masked as philanthropy. So it’s tax deductible. Privatized profits, socialized costs.
No way would I let a robot do surgery on me ! Everything can be hacked just look at websites attacked and put out of action ,just think if the government wanted rid of you and knew you were getting operated on by a robot it would be easy hack the AI by them.
Every month MS needs massive downloads to change their coding due to backdoor attacks ,the American government wont use public cloud services and needs a special military version as public cloud is not 100 % secure regardless of the propaganda saying otherwise.
