Chess-playing robot breaks young boy's finger during match in Moscow

The incident happened after the 7-year-old hurried the artificial intelligence-powered robot, the president of the Moscow Chess Federation told the Russian state news agency Tass

.....A chess-playing robot fractured the finger of its 7-year-old opponent during a tournament in Moscow last week.

The incident happened after the boy hurried the artificial intelligence-powered robot, the president of the Moscow Chess Federation told the Russian state news agency Tass. “The robot broke the child’s finger — this, of course, is bad,” Sergey Lazarev said.

Video of the incident, which occurred at the Moscow Chess Open competition July 19, went viral on social media after a post by the local outlet Baza News.

It shows the machine reaching for and grabbing one of the boy’s chess pieces, and quickly discarding it from the board. Before the robot’s arm retracted, the boy attempted to make another move, pushing one of his rooks into the same place as the recently removed piece.

The video then shows the robot’s mechanical claws descending back toward the board, this time grabbing the boy’s index finger instead of a chess piece.

The video shows the robot holding the finger in place for at least 15 seconds before two bystanders were able to pry open the claws and release the boy.....


open....the pod bay doors......?!

In Russia, chess machine plays YOU...

Where the heck were the light screens for safety ? Bad design.

I went to a chess match and an arm wresting contest broke out!

Not what I'd want it to happen, but it's not like the robot reached out and obviously, deliberately grabbed the kid's finger.

Of course, I don't know this wasn't deliberate.

Once a robot gets a 'taste' of human frailty...

I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

Seems to me a chess playing robot needn't be designed so robustly as to be able to break a finger. Someone has been plotting this for to happen, and they must pay!
