According to @rowancheung, researchers at Johns Hopkins, Stanford, and Optosurgical have developed SRT-H, a dual-transformer AI controller, enabling an off-the-shelf da Vinci surgical robot to autonomously clip and cut pig gallbladders without human intervention. The SRT-H system utilizes a high-level model to decide the next surgical step and issues instructions in natural language, which a low-level model then translates into robotic actions. This breakthrough demonstrates significant progress in AI-driven robotic surgery, showcasing potential for improved surgical precision, efficiency, and scalability in healthcare automation (source: @rowancheung, The Rundown AI).
