According to Russian news agencies, a robot fractured a seven-year-old boy’s finger during a chess tournament in Moscow last week.
“The robot broke the child’s finger,” Sergey Lazarev, Moscow Chess Federation President, told Tass news agency. “This is of course bad.”
The robot is seen stealing one of the boy’s pieces in a video that was posted on social media.
The robot then grabs the boy’s finger when he makes a further maneuver.
The youngster is eventually liberated and led away when four adults rush to his aid.
According to Mr. Lazarev, the system had successfully completed a large number of prior games.
According to Tass, the boy was able to complete the tournament’s final days while wearing a cast.
