On September 11, Alipay announced a collaboration with Gaode Momentum, marking the first time AI payment capabilities have been applied to embodied machines. The product is called "AI Pay · Embodied Intelligence," and netizens have humorously referred to it as "Dog Leg Pay."

The Gaode Momentum robotic dog "Tutu" can follow instructions to run errands and complete payments, truly fulfilling the task of "buying soy sauce" for its owner, all within the owner's authorization.

According to Alipay's official introduction, "AI Pay" applies the APASS commercial trust infrastructure developed independently by Ant Group. Based on the KYA (Know Your Agent) concept, APASS establishes a full-process trust mechanism around the identity, intent, authorization, and behavior of intelligent agents, enabling AI payments to move from "being able to pay" to "paying with trust."
