An Indian university stirred controversy at the AI summit in Delhi after an official claimed a Chinese-built robotic dog as their own creation. A professor from Galgotias University told DD News that the robot named "Orion" was developed at their Centre of Excellence. A video of this statement went viral. Later, online users identified the robot as the Go2 model by Chinese firm Unitree Robotics. The robot costs around 200,000 rupees ($2,200). The university denied claiming to have built the robot in a statement on Wednesday. It called the backlash a "propaganda campaign". "We would like to clearly state that the robotic programming is part of our endeavour to make students learn AI programming and develop and deploy real world skills using globally available tools and resources, given developing AI talent is need of the hour," the university said. Professor Neha Singh, seen in the viral video, told reporters her words were misunderstood. "It might be that I could not convey well what I wanted to say, or you could not understand well what I wanted to say," she stated. Social media users accused the university of dishonesty. Reports said the university was asked to remove its stall at the summit. Faculty said they received no official notice. Hours later, the Press Trust of India reported that electricity to the stall was cut off. A BBC reporter said the booth lights were off and no staff were present. The incident embarrassed summit organisers. The video had been shared by IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on X but was later deleted. IT Secretary S Krishnan said the controversy should not "overshadow" other participants' work. He stressed the need for proper conduct during such events. The India AI Impact Summit was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Delegates from over 100 countries attend, including global tech leaders like Google's Sundar Pichai. The five-day event focuses on AI policy, startups, governance, and innovation. Despite initial issues like overcrowding, organisers say things have improved. BBC correspondent Vikas Pandey noted the venue was "absolutely buzzing" with visitors on day three. The summit aims to boost AI adoption across India.
