The undated video shows two workers on a factory floor near a robot resembling Unitree's H1 model. After a few seconds, the robot begins wildly flailing its arms while walking forward. The workers are forced to dodge the machine until one of them manages to grab the harness restraining it.

Unitree has not commented on the authenticity of the video or the cause of the malfunction, though a software error is suspected. If so, the incident may offer a glimpse into the potential dangers of robotics programming.

The idea of autonomous super robot people doing all the hard work for us sounds great, until you remember that it will all be built on foundations of profit.

It doesn’t really matter how brilliant the engineers are if the corporate manager is forcefully cutting corners.

Who do you think gets the blame when things go wrong though?
