The @StarTrek universe discusses this in its canon - with some comments/conclusions that the computer doctor can hold a scalpel but not actually care about the patient. This is later shown to be untrue (at least in their fiction). 3/4 https://t.co/w5bNpgBv96

Reminds me of a question I have asked medical students in our ethics course about the @StarTrek Discovery Emergency Medical Hologram: "Why did the show creators make this AI doctor in human form?" (played wonderfully by the super talented @RobertPicardo) 2/4
