A huge controversy erupted after a video at the ongoing AI Impact Summit went viral on social media.

A Galgotias University professor, Neha Singh, claimed that the robot dog, named “Orion”, was created in-house by the institution’s Centre of Excellence.

However, netizens quickly found out that it was a Chinese robot dog that the university was claiming as its own.

In the video, Professor Neha Singh claimed that the robot dog was created by the university and was deployed to conduct surveillance and monitoring duties across the university campus.

However, the machine closely resembled a commercially accessible quadruped robot mass-produced by Unitree Robotics.

Online users severely criticised the university for falsification.

Later, after the backlash, Galgotias University issued a clarification and stated that it had never claimed that the robot dog on display was created in-house.

The university also added that it regularly obtained advanced technologies from different locations, including China, Singapore, and the United States, to give its students firsthand exposure to AI technologies.

The university also claimed that the robot was a tool that facilitated students to experiment, learn about its capabilities, and give them a better understanding of robotics and artificial intelligence.

Unitree Robotics mass produces four-limbed robots, which have been nicknamed “robodogs” and can mimic animal movements and are employed for a wide range of applications, such as hurdle navigation, industrial inspection, research applications, and entertainment.

The robodogs manufactured by the company are very popular across the world because they are reasonably priced and rub shoulders with Boston Dynamics’ quadruped robot, Spot.

The episode has also caused a political storm, with the leader of the opposition, Rahul Gandhi, labelling the AI summit a “disorganised PR spectacle”.

Gandhi also alleged that Chinese products have been showcased while the Indian data has been compromised and put on sale.

He also added that the present Modi government has made India a laughing stock globally.

James Charles was embroiled in a huge controversy in 2021 when two sixteen-year-old social media users, Isaiyah and Robert, alleged that Charles, who was 21 then, was involved in grooming and engaging in inappropriate and sexually explicit messaging.

However, he subsequently released a 14-minute video in which he apologized for his actions and termed them as reckless.

He also acknowledged that he had engaged in sexually oriented conversation with the two minors.
