An Indian university has been forced to vacate its stall at this week’s flagship AI summit after falsely claiming to have developed a robot dog – which turned out to have been made in China.
Galgotias University, which is based in Greater Noida near the capital Delhi, displayed a four-legged robot branded “Orion” at the government-backed AI Impact Summit this week. In footage widely shared on social media, a university representative was seen describing the robot as a product “developed” by one of their university’s industry-collaborative hubs.
