A humanoid robot at a Haidilao restaurant in San Jose unexpectedly lost control, causing chaos in the crowded space. The robot, originally programmed to dance to promote the movie "Zootopia 2," instead crashed into a dining table, shattering plates and sending chopsticks flying everywhere.
The orange apron with the words "I'm fine" made the situation even more ironic and attracted attention on social media. Restaurant staff had to work together to control the robot, and even got splashed with sauce while trying to control the device.
The video went viral, generating a wide range of reactions, from humor to concerns about potential risks. Many people have pointed out that the robot lacks an emergency stop button, making incident response slow and dangerous. The incident raises questions about safety procedures when robots are deployed in public spaces.
This serves as a reminder that even advanced technology needs further refinement to ensure human safety. Readers are invited to watch the following video: Breakthroughs in the humanoid robot revolution | VTV24
