“Humanoid Robot” Scam

Here’s how it works: a person is filmed doing an activity, and then the person’s body is replaced with a CGI model of a robot while retaining the original movement. I guess this is called digital double / CGI replacement / character replacement through a process called compositing. If anyone knows about VFX you can clear this up. Here’s an example:

https://dintentdata.com/1484-digitally-altered-video-shows-robot-playing-badminton-circulated-as-realfact-check/

I believe this process has been used to fraudulently raise venture capital for robotics companies, but the recent World Humanoid Robot Games in China raise this practice to a new frightening and sinister level. First let’s look at some more obvious examples.
First, the most obvious:
https://x.com/0xVisii0nary/status/2091235923057103005
Next, less obvious, but still obvious. Note the tweet saying “No CGI. No special effects.”
https://x.com/sz_mediagroup/status/2026249243875295678
This one doesn’t claim to be real footage, and seems to be 100% CGI
https://x.com/PLA_MilitaryUpd/status/2091391509950280124
Here’s iShowSpeed with a pretty obvious one
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Hag52ouCzJs
This one appears to not even be CGI enhanced, just a guy in a costume dancing
https://x.com/humanoidpress/status/2092165325609730291
This one is interesting- from a sex robot company. The CGI enhanced demonstration, while quite convincing, is much more advanced than the prototypes which they actually have:
https://x.com/SomniaRobotics/status/2091118737130660321
https://x.com/SomniaRobotics/status/2091383574041969114
These are more convincing, but still
https://x.com/rohanpaul_ai/status/2091017266510930102
https://x.com/ErenChenAI/status/2090667898285023575
That second one is from the Chinese games which we’ll get to, but here is some Elon Musk
>>
First one is just the idea for Optimus, a guy in a robot suit dancing
https://x.com/DoctorJack16/status/1845057277528564194
Then a fake Optimus demo passed off as real and Elon+AI Optimus
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1922083384085430492

Total scam
https://x.com/RT_com/status/1999115695687188663
It’s called… a scam
https://x.com/ShangguanJiewen/status/1902193315824738393
https://x.com/Nicksatitg3763/status/1902196609301278782

So the World Humanoid Robot Games started a few days ago in China. One of the main “competitors” in the games in Unitree, which just went public on 8/19/26, it is now worth $50 billion dollars and its CEO, Wang Xingxing is now the richest person born after 1990.

The creepy part is how much effort went into making this fake. Also the way that the robots lose limbs on impact and get placed onto stretchers is ominous because this technology can be used by authorities to mask casualty events. The short robots are played by children…

Why would they need to fake this? We already have a much faster version of mechanical motion: the car. It's easily plausible to make mechanical bipedal movement really fast in a straight or curved line.

It would be impressive if these were actually self-learned systems that could generalize above broad motions at that speed (or even lower). Nothing cool about making a bot go really fast in a straight or predefined curved line.

I don't really see how this is "fake". It's not CGI or AI generated videos. You still need a robot that can walk and balance. Even if it's executing a script instead thinking on its own, it's still a difficult feat, and the data gathered from it is used to train neural networks that will eventually make robots walk on their own.

Dude boston dynamics has been making significantly more impressive robots 15 years ago. Robots that could actually navigate complex terrain, do backflips, and attempt basic tasks mimicking warehouse labor.

You seriously think a bot moving its limbs really really fast on a flat terrain is more impressive than that and impossible? It's like being impressed by combustion engines in 2026.

You can see these IRL. Why would they fake this with CGI instead of just developing actual robots and capturing an incredibly lucrative potential market? Industrial arms already exist if you go to any modern factory they are literally everywhere, bipedal or 4-legged robots are the next step in working in human-based environments.

It's hard to put a read on you, either you are a boomer and out of touch or you are somehow severely coping with the progress out of fear.

Your time frame is completely fucked.
They made Petman 15 years ago, it could barely walk straight on a treadmill.
Their backflip robots work in a controlled environment and you can bet your ass they chose the best run out of a shitton of them.
This chink tech is completely different from that limited Boston Dynamics stuff that would shit the bed outside the laboratory in a heartbeat.

You guys make the rest of us look bad with your scatter-gun 'everything is CGI' shit. Some of them are real. Boston Dynamics is real. I still think Boston Dynamics is shit though because they have been making cute demos for years but they never bring anything to mass market - probably because each one costs $500,000 to make and the battery life is like five minutes.

The Chink one with blue hair is a Unitree G1 which is remote controlled and has a couple of programmed 'moves' it does like the karate.
