This AI taught itself to do surgery by watching videos-and it's ready to operate on humans
Briefly

"The AI managed to achieve a performance level comparable to human surgeons without prior explicit programming. This is a breakthrough that crosses a definitive medical frontier."
"Rather than trying to painstakingly program a robot to operate, they trained this AI through something called imitation learning, allowing it to observe and replicate surgical actions."
"By making the AI watch thousands of hours of actual procedures, the researchers enabled it to learn complex actions by breaking them down into kinematic components."
"Using the da Vinci Surgical System, the researchers proved their AI's capabilities through virtual simulations, which allowed for faster iterations and safety validations."
