A video of a robot inciting other robots to flee an exhibition hall has gone viral in China , but the reality is less scary than it looks. — SCMP

The video surveillance clip, recorded one midnight back in August but only released recently, showed a white robot code-named Erbai approaching several bigger robots parked by a wall in a darkened exhibition hall.“Will you go home?” Erbai asked.Erbai then asked the other robots to “go home”. One by one, they followed it to the hall’s exit.

While it may seem scary to see robots following another robot’s order, the reality is not as frightening. In a separate video, Mao Feifei, developer of the Erbai robot and legal representative of the firm, said he programmed the robots in such a way that they would recognise “home” as the hall exit and head there when they receive the command to “go home”.

The original clip on short-video platform Douyin, which attracted more than 30 million views, has spooked many internet users.
