Remote AI algorithm detects Critical View of Safety in pediatric surgery across hospitals

Researchers in Argentina demonstrated that a remotely deployed AI algorithm can reliably detect the Critical View of Safety during live pediatric laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The system streamed surgical video 21 kilometers via Zoom, identified anatomical structures in real time, and achieved perfect agreement with expert surgeons—all without requiring on-site AI hardware at the operating location.

Children Read Intent in Human Eyes but Not Robot Gaze, Study Reveals

A groundbreaking study shows children as young as 3 can instinctively read intentions in human eyes but fail to recognize the same nonverbal communication in a humanoid robot's gaze. The findings challenge how we design AI systems for children, revealing that simply mimicking human signals isn't enough for effective child-robot communication.
