Robotic Surgery, Artificial Limbs, & AI with Science Stuff Host Jorge Cham
Show: Health Stuff
Hari and Priyanka are joined by Science Stuff host Jorge Cham to talk about advances in robotic-assisted surgery, including how robots are already helping surgeons operate with greater precision and what the future of automated surgery could look like. They also explore how artificial limbs are becoming more responsive and humanlike as AI systems learn to better interpret signals from the body. Finally, they dig into the downsides of these technologies, from growing data and energy demands to ethical questions about where AI belongs in medicine and who might be left out as it advances.
