AIDOL the AI Robot Falls During Grand Entrance

WooGlobe

Russia’s highly anticipated debut of its first AI-powered humanoid robot took an unexpected turn — and a hard fall. Named AIDOL, the robot walked out triumphantly to the Rocky theme song, waved to the audience… and then suddenly collapsed on stage in front of 50 stunned journalists. The bot's dramatic fall left pieces scattered across the floor and organizers scrambling to cover it up.  Developers blamed lighting and calibration issues, saying AIDOL is still in a learning phase. But the moment has already gone viral, raising questions about the future of robotics. With Elon Musk’s Tesla Optimus bots making progress and a predicted 10 billion humanoid robots by 2040, is this just a stumble on the path to revolution — or a sign of how far we still have to go?

00:00Russia just unveiled its first humanoid AI robot.

00:03And it immediately face-planted on stage in front of reporters.

00:07The bot, called Idle, was meant to be a proud symbol of Russian innovation.

00:11It walked out dramatically to the Rocky theme song,

00:14Waved to the Crowd.

00:15And then, boom, it collapsed.

00:17Pieces scattered everywhere.

00:19Organizers rushed to cover it with a black sheet as it was dragged off stage.

00:23They blamed lighting and calibration issues.

00:26But it was supposed to walk, talk, and even handle objects.

00:30Now, instead of headlines for progress, it's gone viral for failure.

00:34Despite the disaster, the company says Idle is still learning.

00:37And they're determined to perfect it.

00:40Meanwhile, Elon Musk's army of Tesla Optimus robots is already dancing and fetching drinks.

00:46And Musk predicts there will be 10 billion humanoid robots on Earth by 2040.

00:50So here's the question.

00:52Are we witnessing the birth of a revolution in robotics?

00:54Or just the world's most expensive pratfall?
