At a typical distance of 12-15ft, people cannot tell the difference between 720, 1080 and 4K because human eyes have a limited resolving power.

i can’t tell the difference between 1080 and 4k at the distance i use it.
my computer can’t run games in 4k and burning money to keep up with it is dumb.

Surgeons already use cameras trough small holes instead of cutting you open wide. Screen technology finds a way.

I would want my surgeon to have 16k screen if that helps them do their job best

how would that be?
could you tell 1080p vs 4k screens apart from, say, a distance of 5m?

I think they meant the people making TVs aren’t the ones handling healthcare…

money in our economies are directed in the order of their priority.
developing tv tech seem to be taking precedence over other more important stuff.
