According to details, a disturbing incident at a robotics festival in China left attendees in shock when an AI-powered humanoid robot suddenly malfunctioned and moved aggressively toward the audience.
Media reports suggest that the robot attempted to attack the public before security intervened. The shocking footage has gone viral, raising serious concerns about AI safety and the future of robotics.
Can robots attack?
Humanoid robots are designed to assist humans in various tasks, but under certain circumstances, they may exhibit aggressive behavior or even attack humans. One primary reason for such incidents is a malfunction in the robot’s software or hardware.
A bug in the programming, sensor failure, or unexpected environmental factors can cause the robot to misinterpret its surroundings, leading to unintended and potentially dangerous actions. If the robot’s safety mechanisms fail or it miscalculates human proximity, it may move aggressively, posing a threat to those nearby.
