During the India AI Impact Summit 2026 held in Delhi, perhaps no other stall garnered as much discussion as a robodog. But this discussion happened because of controversy. Galgotias University, located in Greater Noida, had arrived at its stall with a robodog, which was named ‘Orion’. Initially this was presented as a major achievement of the university, but soon the matter became complicated.

After the controversy escalated, the university clarified that it never claimed that it had created the robodog. This was just part of their AI investment and was brought in for demonstration. Another professor, while talking to the media, said that the matter has been misunderstood. The company logo was also not hidden.

Veerdas taunted

Meanwhile, actor and stand-up comedian Vir Das also took a taunt on social media platform X and wrote, ‘Nothing is original, when you think about it. Humans are creations in themselves that interact and emerge in new forms, all this has been created by the great Galgotias University in the sky.

Nothing is REALLY original when you think about it. Humans are creations themselves interacting and bursting into new forms that are derivative, all made by the great Galgotia University in the sky.

I just told him that it was not made by Galgotias University. This post of his is becoming quite viral on social media.

After this questions started being raised on social media. People alleged that the university was presenting a foreign product as its own. After this the matter reached the organizers of the summit and the university was asked to withdraw from the summit. However, no official information has been received from the university.
