The G1 fighting robot, developed by Chinese robotics firm Unitree, stole the show at the 2025 World AI Conference held in Shanghai from July 26 to 28. Standing 1.32 meters tall and weighing 35 kilograms, it boasts 29 flexible joints and an intelligent balance system that allows it to execute smooth boxing combos, swiftly regain balance after surprise attacks, and autonomously stand up within seconds if it falls.
