Well, anything could be fake these days even the Boston Dynamic's video could be fake in this day and age but... I tend to believe both videos probably are not fake. With speech recognition, text to speech AGI and the advancements in machine learning as applied to robotics, it is not impossible for many or any committed enough group of engineers with financial means to make some notable progress on that front. So it is not just skills but money too.

But Figure 01 do have real videos of their robot walking. Compare the wobbliness in those videos vs the one I've linked. The difference is easily noticeable. One moves like a physical thing, the other moves like a scripted rigid body simulation from a game cutscene. Also, I didn't say what they demoed was impossible (other than the unnaturally smooth motion). There's probably good reason they went with a cgi video, but we don't know.
