Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
I would be curious to see what your thoughts are if and when in fact robots replace surgeons--as I noted when I shared thoughts on if the World only had robots.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, absolutely.  As stated in the article we are in the early days of digital disruption.  The result will be the collective impact of decisions we are all making today.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, as I have stated, it is the augmentation of human intelligence with technology.  The example, as I pointed out, of precision surgery is an excellent demonstration of balance - under the control of a skilled physician.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, thankfully I know of NO examples where robots are replacing physicians.  I do not see that as ever happening - the medical socities AND the public I believe would totally oppose that.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, I think the article Mike has presented provides a good example of how the early carriers are improving service WITH digital advancements.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
Understood--but the question (and this is only a rhetorical question), where will it all end?  Where should it end?  What about the role of humans in this endeavor?

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
Thank you for the clarification.   It is an "exciting" future no doubt--but the "day after" is also of concern--and not clear--are we ready to deal with it?

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
It will be quite a while before Medicine becomes "uberized" (to borrow a thought from the UK Shadow Chancellor).  As I noted, though, we have to be prepared to deal with the aftermath of automation.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
No Doubt--the transformation we're witness to is welcome indeed.    As I have noted in our deliberations, as long as we make sure that we maintain the control and harness it for the betterment of all.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, no one can predict the future, but it will be framed by the decisions we are all making today.  If we come up with good examples, that will be part of the answer - so that is the benefit of the early disrupters and the effective solutions they are providing in better services, etc.
