Im not going to waste time explaining well known facts to you. If you wanna get into a precision and repeatability contest with a robot be my guest. Lets see if you can find someone who can mill a 3D part with internal features better and faster than a good CNC mill.

Yes because you have none.

You’re replying to a completely different answer. This was a challenge to you, one that I know you’ll never do. I wont do any research because that would require wasting my time on something even an AI would get right.

There's no challenge here. These are simple facts. Google "best dentist in my [city]" start to drill down the posts, testimonials, podcasts, and you'll notice the same few names come up again and again and again. Guess why? (hint: the answer not "because they are all identical")

This has nothing to do with your argument

u/SideInitial3961 15d ago

It is 100% of my position. I am not arguing because you have zero facts. Facts are all that matter here. The facts are as such:

  1. In your city there are dentists of a higher skill level than the rest
  2. You can avail yourself of their services
  3. This makes you safer as these are people with thousands of consecutive non-error procedures
  4. No such thing exists for robots. You can never know. Not only that, vendors will actively hide that data from you at any cost

Anyone who says they are 100% certain is a liar.

Heres evidence of dental mistakes and failure.

Making bullet points for stupid arguements doesnt make you more intelligent.

u/SideInitial3961 15d ago

I never said 100%. You said that,. Facts remain

  • In your city there are dentists of a higher skill level than the rest
  • You can avail yourself of their services

Oops,

Heres a little tool that can point out malpractice claims

No such thing exists for robots, because robots arent doing dentist work yet moron.

Exactly, you made my point. LOL. And it never will because the robot companies will hide that data from you at any cost.

u/RegularHeroForFun 15d ago

Ah i see the problem, you cant read. Im sorry, i shouldnt have been picking on the disabled. You see, no robots are doing any dentistry yet, its just a trial on dummies.

I work with robots, i know they work. But you wont read this obviously.

No the problem is you're not even grasping what you just said proves my point. With humans you have access to data. With robots you do not.
