The “Robot Surgeon” Prediction by Zonkatron

Robots Surgeons will be starting to replace actual human doctors in 2030

According to Elon Musk , robots will replace all medical doctors soon. He has explicitly stated that medical training as we know it is becoming obsolete, famously remarking: 

“Don’t go to medical school… it’s pointless.”

But is this realistic? I don’t think so…Here is my prediction.

Prediction

Even in 50 years (2080), surgeons will still not totally be replaced by robots especially in poor countries.

Elon Musk’s recommendation about medical school will be valid only after about 70 years. So, before the year 2100, medical school will still be needed.
