    In theory, I completely agree. In practice, the idea of a surgeon operating on myself or a loved one, with a headset strapped to their face and observing everything through a series of cameras, is terrifying.

    I’m not sure how long it’ll be before the public trust is present in technology like this to the point that’ll be okay. I think we’ll get there, but not with the first generation.
