A child's finger was broken by a chess robot last week, and the incident was caught on CCTV at a competition in Russia.

According to Russian media reports, who cited the President of the Moscow Chess Federation, who appeared to place the blame on the youngster, the robot grabbed the seven-year-old boy's finger because it was bewildered by his excessively swift moves.

Sergey Lazarev distanced his organization from the robot and said, "The robot fractured the child's finger — this, of course, is horrible."

On July 19, the event happened at the Moscow Open. According to Lazarev, the federation had rented the robot for the July 13–21 event.

Lazarev claimed that the equipment had been used for numerous occasions in the past without mishap, claiming that the boy rushed to move a piece after making a move.
We rented the robot, which has been on display for a while with experts in several locations. It appears that the operators failed to notice it, Lazarev added.

"The child moved, and we need to allow the robot time to respond. However, the boy hurried, and the robot grabbed him." The robot has nothing to do with us.

The Baza Telegram channel released video of the incident and identified the youngster as Christopher. Baza claimed that he was one of the top 30 under-nine age group chess players in Moscow.

The Russian Chess Federation's vice-president, Sergey Smagin, allegedly went even further in condemning the youngster, according to The Guardian.

There are several safety regulations, and it appears that the child disregarded them. He did not realize that he needed to wait before moving," Smagin was quoted in The Guardian as stating. This is a very unusual case—the first one I can recall.

The video depicts the robot, which consists of a single mechanical arm with numerous joints and a "hand," as being in the center of a table with three separate chess boards surrounding it. Its AI purportedly has the ability to play three games simultaneously.

The video begins with the robot picking up a piece from the board and dropping it into a box off to the side, which is used to hold the game's discards. It was recorded by a camera over the boy's shoulder.

The young youngster reaches as it does to make his subsequent motion. The boy's finger, however, appears to be mistaken by the robot for a chess piece, and it gets grabbed in its place.

The boy's finger is grabbed by the mechanical arms, which then become stuck and trap him. This causes him to become terrified. He receives assistance from several individuals who are gathered around the table and, after a brief struggle, they are able to liberate him from the robot's hold.

The youngster was able to return to the contest the next day in a case, according to Lazarev, who claimed that the boy finished the competition.

He did, however, tell TASS that Moskomsport—the Department of Sport for the Russian capital—had contacted his organization and that the boy's parents had spoken with the public prosecutor's office about the incident.

In addition to promising to assist the family "in any way we can," he issued a warning to the robot's operators, advising them to "consider about increasing protection so that this situation does not happen again."

The occurrence was a coincidence, Smagin told RIA Novosti, adding that the robot is "totally safe," according to The Guardian.

It has appeared at numerous openings. Evidently, warnings must be given to kids. It does," Smagin remarked, referring to the robot as "special."
