Homo Automatum

United States of America, 1999

Humanoid creature made from metal. Its behind's surface was extremely polished.

Scholars maintain it was fuelled by alcohol.

ID # 1999 2-

(Best I could do.)

(e: added a word; updated based on replies.)

I think your missing words are, "Scholars maintain."

I think you’re right. Updated, cheers.

It’s under/behind surface was extremely polished.

I see ‘its’ (no apostrophe), but not under/behind. That word seems to end in ‘f’ and has either an ‘s or a citation mark?

This is gonna bug me now.

I'm pretty sure it's "its behind's surface was extremely polished". Unfortunately, in looking it up, I found out it's an NFT.

That explains why I couldn’t find a source image, thanks.

I feel sorry for whoever paid for this.

There's a whole collection with different textures on the head. The same "artist" seems to do skeletal renders of a lot of cartoon characters on the same pedestal with some sort of description you can't read because the rendered videos (they're videos for some reason) are too low resolution.

That’s the same image with the same jpeg artefacts, but with extra tracking algorithms, so thanks.
