This is Unitree G1, a Chinese humanoid robot being tested at a hospital setting, opening drawers, restocking supplies, and moving the bed. I still have doubts about widespread use due to the Moravec paradox, but maybe healthcare professional shortages can become so...
Yeah. Real surgical robots are mostly endoscopic. Some big humanoid isn't going to do what tiny probes that slide through your body can.
Strep throat is both a terrible illness particularly when left untreated. And to get it diagnosed and treated is, for many people, terribly burdensome - costing time to get into a do , money to see a doc, time waiting...
