Elon (@elonmusk),
Your prediction has sparked an important conversation in surgery.
After presenting and discussing the future of AI in robotic surgery this week at the The Robotic Global Surgical Society (TROGSS) Congress in Luxembourg with robotic surgery leaders and colleagues from around the world, my conclusion is a little different.
AI is already transforming surgery—recognizing anatomy, predicting complications, assessing surgical performance, and providing decision support. Many of these advances are already supported by research, while others are rapidly moving toward clinical practice.
As surgeons, we are not resisting AI—we are helping build it responsibly.
But AI cannot replace clinical judgment, earn a patient's trust, or accept responsibility.
The future isn't autonomous surgery—it's surgeons empowered by AI and robotics to make surgery safer, smarter, and more precise, while the surgeon remains firmly in control.
AI won't replace surgeons. It will replace uncertainty.
The future belongs to surgeons who embrace AI—not to AI replacing surgeons.
