If the robot did that on its own to music without being told, then that's when you start worrying.
what....

it did do it on its own without being told, it's called programming. You can program something to pick whatever move it wants...so it's technically "doing it on its own without being told"

this shit is like 101 robotting. all smoke shows with fancy programming.

we haven't even gotten close to sentient AI. maybe in 50 years

Everything is an illusion.

Programming *is* doing what it is told. Just because it can make simple decisions from a list of options, doesn't mean its doing it on its own. And rewatching the video it looks like it was just straight up following a program. The music was probably dubbed after.

My entire point was that when the robot is making its own decisions that its not programmed to do - thats when its time to worry.
