A video allegedly showing a humanoid robot attempting to attack a customer at a technology store in Russia is going viral on social media.
In the video, the customer appears to push the robot, after which the humanoid robot suddenly moves toward the person and appears to engage in an attacking motion. The incident has reportedly shocked people who witnessed the scene.
The video has sparked discussions on social media about the safety of AI-powered robots and their interaction with humans.
However, there is currently no reliable official explanation confirming whether the robot actually “reacted in anger” or whether its movement was caused by a technical malfunction, automated programming or another factor.
Since a reliable and detailed news report independently confirming the incident is not currently available, the incident should be described as a claim based on a viral video rather than as a confirmed robot attack.
