China's latest autonomous robots display has some viewers worried while others can't even believe it is real.China held its annual CCTV Spring Festival gala, which is an annual performance that shows off the latest the country has to offer in tech.'Some "imperfection" movement of the robots is really scary.'The event saw a reported 677 million viewers across platforms, according to China Daily, and an alleged 13.5 billion views on clips after the fact. What caught the most eyes in the West though, was the performance of humanoid robots from tech company Unitree Robotics. Unitree was one of four robot companies to put on displays, but it seemingly caught the most eyes with its robots' drunken boxing routine, performed alongside acrobatic children.The performance included sword and staff work, gymnastics, and even breakdancing. According to NBC News, new innovations in multi-robot coordination and fault recovery were a focus in the display, with the latter referring to a robot's ability to get up after falling down.Reactions online were a mix of shock and awe, along with worry."This is getting scary and creepy," one user commented on YouTube."Some 'imperfection' movement of the robots is really scary," another viewer added. However, there exist claims that the robots are not actually this advanced, and some sort of postproduction was involved.RELATED: Wives of the future: A Chinese tech CEO's plan to replace women On X, one viewer pointed out the drastic difference between the robotic capabilities on display at the festival in 2025 versus 2026. Last year, robots were stumbling around waving handkerchiefs, while this year they are in choreographed gymnastics and martial arts displays."In just one year, they have evolved from robots to 'humans,'" AI entrepreneur Tansu Yegen wrote.Another user disputed the video, saying he saw the same robots at a live demo "a month ago in Shenzhen.""They're slow, shaky, & can barely shuffle let alone do any of this. This isn't the first time unitree has used cgi to fake capability," he claimed.RELATED: Man vs. machine: Chinese robots will compete against humans in Beijing half-marathon Last year, Unitree put on a Humanoid Robot Boxing event that showed robots sloppily competing in martial arts with one another. The capabilities this February would likely be considered a vast jump from what was seen in May 2025 by the fighter bots.Still there is yet to be any concrete evidence that Unitree or China was faking the event. At the same time though, Shenzhen EngineAI Robotics Technology Co. Ltd. launched the Ultimate Robot Knock-Out Legend event a week earlier. The company plans to have "Chinese Robot Kung Fu" robots battle it out for a 10-kilogram pure gold belt worth about $1.4 million.Like Blaze News?

While the Miss America pageant has long been known for featuring the most beautiful women in the country, organizers are now opening the competition up to biological men and removing the crowns of those who disagree.When Miss North Florida Kayleigh Bush refused to sign a contract that featured the pageant’s updated policies because it changed the language to claim that men can be considered women and eligible to compete, she was stripped of her title.And BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales is seriously disturbed, saying, “Miss America is now allowing trans people to compete.”“Now they’ve got updated rules. Contestants have to be women aged 18 to 28, unmarried, no children, and U.S. citizens. However, ‘women,’ air quotes, includes those born female or an individual who has fully completed sex reassignment surgery via vaginoplasty,” she explains.BlazeTV contributor Matthew Marsden is as shocked as Gonzales.“The mental gymnastics that they have to go through — which is, by the way, going to tank the organization. It’s going to be over,” he says, before pointing out that it’s a “communist play.”“They want to say that ugly is beautiful. They want to say, ‘Look at that beautiful building.’ And you go, ‘Uh, it’s a concrete building.’ … But isn’t it funny? That’s what they’re doing,” he says.“What they’re trying to do is mess with your head. I mean, really, they’re trying to tell you, ‘Hang on a second. Beauty is ugly. Ugly is beauty. Don’t look at this. Don’t look at that. A man’s a woman. A woman’s a man,’” he continues.Want more from Sara Gonzales?To enjoy more of Sara's no-holds-barred takes on news and culture, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
