A short clip featuring two very hot “humanoid robots” being showcased at this year’s Beijing World Robot Conference has sparked a heated online debate about whether they are actual robots.

This year’s Beijing World Robot Conference features hundreds of international exhibitors and over a thousand special guests, but the event recently went viral for something that has less to do with technology and more with makeup and cosplay. Ex-Robot, a Chinese company that specializes in bionic humanoid robots, unveiled its latest creations in front of hundreds of journalists and visitors, and while they were definitely impressive-looking, two of them really stood out because of their doll-like appearance. Many X users were impressed by how attractive the two robots looked, while others wondered if they were actual robots or just real women cosplaying as androids.

Having watched the clip several times, it’s clear that the controversial robots at the forefront of the Ex-Robot stage look considerably better than the animatronics in the background. However, they have the same unnatural head and limb movements, lifeless eyes, and futuristic exoskeletons inspired by Japanese manga and anime.

Eventually, proof that the impressive robots were disguised women all along made its way onto social media. Photos of one of the “robots” on her lunch break went viral, and then X user @froggyups uploaded a video of the two girls being turned into realistic androids with makeup, contact lenses, wigs, and detailed costumes.

We keep hearing about AI-powered robots becoming more human-like every day, but apparently humans can play that game as well. Remember that robot waitress in China who made international news headlines a while back?
