Is this a mosquito?
No. It's an insect spy drone for urban areas, already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be remotely controlled and is equipped with a camera and a microphone. It can land on you, and it may have the potential to take a DNA sample or leave RFID tracking nanotechnology on your skin. It can fly through an open window, or it can attach to your clothing until you take it in your home.

Im not sure you could fit much of a brain in that one,   even if it was custom hardware.

Hoax. Images of that fantasy robot have been around for a long time. There is an entry for it on snopes.com and you can even download the 3d model that was used to make it.
