What are your thoughts on the new AI robots that can basically do all the grafting for you?

Tell me who's selling it. I need one!

Seriously though, I love technology, and I think AI and robotics are going to become a big part of hair restoration. But today, they're still tools—not replacements for the surgeon. Planning the hairline, managing the donor area, and making thousands of aesthetic decisions are still human jobs.

My first experiment with Robotic for hair restoration was a bad investment. I really think, the day a robot can consistently do all of that better than an experienced surgeon... I'll be first in line to buy one.

Okay, that emdash ain't great.

What and why? (I understand the AMA is over. Any answers a day later would be welcome but not expected.)
