    Actually have all of the jobs I would think the safest are doctors and lawyers. When your life and liberty are on the line you really don’t want an emotionless machine you want a human.

    Years ago I had to have surgery on my neck to remove a benign tumor, and I absolutely wasn’t worried, I was definitely worried it would hurt but I wasn’t worried it would go wrong and I’d end up getting a major artery cut, because I trusted the person doing it, because they came and talked to me. I wouldn’t absolutely not trust a robot to do surgery, even if logically the robot would probably be better than the human.
