• 🇨🇳 China’s humanoid robots stumble, break down, and finish the world’s first robot half marathon

In Beijing this weekend, a humanoid robot named Tiangong Ultra crossed a finish line that few imagined robots would even approach. It had fallen once, had its batteries swapped three times, and still took nearly three hours to run 13.1 miles. But it finished — a testament, of sorts, to the mechanical resolve of a machine designed to walk like us.

Thousands of spectators cheered. Some runners even stopped mid-race to take selfies with it. Not far behind — or rather, very far behind — other robots limped, wobbled, and sometimes simply collapsed during what organizers billed as the world’s first humanoid robot half marathon.

The event, a parallel race to the Beijing Yizhuang Half Marathon, marked a peculiar new chapter in China’s pursuit of “embodied intelligence” — meaning AI embedded in physical forms.
