They only use data for making decisions and if you use robots even the manual part is going to be replaced.

As an anesthesiologist, I do not think anybody will trust a robot with their lives. A robot might be able to monitor the body's physiologic changes under anaesthesia, but responding to those changes requires not only experience but also an understanding of pharmacology and pharmacodynamics. A robot has to be a human to do that.

Yeah, i think 14% and 30% are wayyyy too high. I think it’s more like 0% chance within the next 30 years or so.
