DD News

DD News is a state-run broadcaster in India. It is currently newsworthy due to its involvement in a controversy surrounding an AI summit held in Delhi. A professor from Galgotias University, while being interviewed by DD News at the summit, falsely claimed that a Chinese-made robotic dog, specifically the Unitree Go2 model manufactured by Unitree Robotics, was developed by the university. This misrepresentation was quickly identified by online users, leading to significant backlash against both the university and, by extension, DD News for broadcasting the inaccurate information. The university has reportedly been asked to leave the summit following the incident. The event highlights concerns about the presentation of technological advancements and the role of state media in verifying information before dissemination.
