It probably wasn't even controlled much, just doing a preprogrammed song and dance with minor tweaks if it fucks up.

The dancing robots were definitely programmed like we do with industrial robots for decades.

The robot pouring drinks was controlled remotely. One of the robots even signaled to an investor that it was only a tiny bit of AI to the question. (I'm only judging the gesture, as the voice sounded almost like the questionnaire interpreting the hand signals but the Internet claims it was the operator responding)
