Local authorities said that a seven-year-old boy had fractured his finger, due to an “unintentional” assault by a chess-playing robot during a tournament in Moscow.
The organizers said that the boy moved a piece on the chessboard before it was time to do so, and it happened, which Sergey Lazarev, president of the Chess Federation commented on: “The robot broke the boy’s finger, which is clearly bad.”
Lazarev noted that the federation does not own the robot, but rather rents it from its operators, who seem to have “missed” this possibility in the security protocols.
All acquisition that advanced AI will destroy humanity is false. Not the powerful AI or breaching laws of robotics will destroy humanity, but engineers with both left hands :/
