【印度一大学深陷“机器狗造假”风波，被勒令撤出国家AI峰会】
据两位政府消息人士透露，印度一所大学因一名工作人员被发现将一款中国制造的商用机器狗冒充为自主研发产品，而被要求撤出该国旗舰人工智能峰会的展位。

“你们应该见见Orion。这是加尔各答大学卓越中心研发的。” 本周，传播学教授尼哈·辛格(Neha Singh)在接受国营电视台DD News采访时说道，这段话迅速在网络上疯传。

但社交媒体用户很快发现，这款机器狗实际上是中国优利特机器人公司(Unitree Robotics)生产的优利特Go2，售价约为2800美元，并在全球科研和教育领域广泛应用。

此事引发了强烈批评，也让印度的人工智能发展前景蒙上了一层阴影。

信息技术部长阿什维尼·瓦伊什纳夫(Ashwini Vaishnaw)在舆论风暴爆发前，在其官方社交媒体账号上分享了这段视频，进一步加剧了尴尬局面。该帖子随后被删除。

Galgotias 和 Singh 后来都表示，该机器人并非大学所创造，而大学也从未声称过相反的说法。

Reuters：
An Indian university has been asked to vacate its stall at the country's flagship AI summit after a staff member was caught presenting a commercially available robotic dog made in China as its own creation, two government sources said.
"You need to meet Orion. This has been developed by the Centre of Excellence at Galgotias University," Neha Singh, a professor of communications, told state-run broadcaster DD News this week in remarks that have since gone viral.

But social media users quickly identified the robot as the Unitree Go2, sold by China's Unitree Robotics for about $2,800 and widely used in research and education globally.
The episode has drawn sharp criticism and has cast an uncomfortable spotlight on India's artificial intelligence ambitions.
The embarrassment was amplified by IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, who shared the video clip on his official social media account before the backlash. The post was later deleted.
Both Galgotias and Singh have subsequently said the robot was not a university creation and the university had never claimed otherwise. http://t.cn/AXtmjAsy
