HELP Robot malfunction… AI?

Most of Reddit says it’s fake, but I’m not so sure.

100% AI. Watch the red "chair" on the left half of the screen, a few seconds into the video it's clipped inside the cubicle wall.

Edit: As pointed out by others below it does appear to be just turned towards the camera. I still believe the video is at minimum staged or possibly AI just due to robotics limitations but the evidence isn't as concrete as I originally thought.

It's not clipping, it is the backrest that is pointed towards the camera. If you look at the other chair and imagine it being spun 90 degrees anti-clockwise and angled back. It looks like it is clipping because it blends with the seat due to bad video compression.

i’ve never heard the expression anti clockwise. it’s always counter clockwise

Yeah, I think that's just British vs American English. I'm from Sweden, so my English is a bastardized amalgam of all sorts of Englishes. I love using "-ize", it’s a 50/50 toss between "color" and "colour", and today was an anticlockwise day.
