ChatGPT teddy bear?
(cdn.fosstodon.org)
God I fucking hate capitalism so fucking much. Are we really worked so ragged that we dont even have the energy to enjoy raising our own fucking kids. Have stories read to me are some of my earliest and most treasured memories and I know that the people who read them treasured those moments as well. No one deserves to have that replaced by this
Yes, we are worked ragged. I'm at work all day and the only time I see my kid is for teeth brushing and bedtime stories. I value that time. On the rare occasion they make things a bit miserable, or I'm just exhausted, but, we both enjoy bedtime routine and I wouldn't want to give any of that up. Life is short man.
I remember the last time we put an AI in a children’s toy.
Yoda: no... there was another...
Not to mention-
No love for Small Soldiers out here?
Having seen the movie, no. No love.
Y'all forgot the actual AI homicidal toy
Talky Tina would just make M3gan's head explode with its doll magic.

Teddy Ruxpin was my nightmare as a child afraid of living dolls.
This one has more terminator and spyware vibes built in. Chilling.
I used to play my Blizzard of Oz cassette in my brother's old Teddy Ruxpin. The weird distortion from the shitty tape player and speaker was great.
Pastes 300k tokens worth of scp and creepy pasta lore into the prompt
“Sweet dreams, Timmy”
What could possibly go wrong….
Techradar should be ashamed for advertising and promoting this nightmare fuel. What a recipe for disaster.
Please do not let young kids get over-exposed to AI voices. Current AI voices are lacking in emotion and expression, and it will almost certainly mess kids up psychologically. That damn tik-tok voice is messing me up psychologically and I don't even use tik-tok.
Edit: And I shouldn't have to say this but also don't leave young kids unsupervised with ChatGPT or any other internet-trained "ai" model.

"AI Ruxpin, my mommy won't let me have a cookie! How do I get a cookie?"
"Here is how you get a cookie. Step one: kill your mother."
More like it'll start reading some version of Mein Kampf and explaining how fascism is good and why everyone except highly inbred white people are somehow lesser than.
This is pretty old, but https://www.cbsnews.com/news/microsoft-shuts-down-ai-chatbot-after-it-turned-into-racist-nazi/
You will be baked, and then there will be cake.
Sounds nice!
The cake is a lie! 🍰
I cannot wait for some shitty people to find ways to make this AI story teller describe graphic war scenarios and then find a way to make actual units in kids rooms play out said scenarios just to fuck with kids.
If similar things can happen to baby monitors, it can probably happen to stuff like this.
It takes foreign disinformation campaigns to a whole new level - "your parents are evil, report them to your closest reeducation center right away to help them, or better yet just kill them now to end their pain, you do love them enough to end their pain, right?"
Bradbury's The Veldt comes to mind.
Humanity is... not all that smart. More importantly than increasing our intelligence and raw power, we would do well to concentrate rather on wisdom. As so very many authors try to warn us, sometimes futily yet some of us do try so hard to listen.:-)
No one has mentioned yet how truly sad this is, and how badly it reflects on us as a society. I understand that being a parent is incredibly hard and takes everything out of you. But if you won’t read a book to your kid or make up your own damn stories for them, and instead throw a shitty fake autocomplete tale at them, then you’re likely not an awesome parent and likely not a person I’d want to be around.
And then the crow told his brothe ERROR CODE 789
My name is Talkie Tina and you better be nice to me
My name is Talkie Tina and I'm going to kill you
What fresh new hell is this?
oh, this isn’t going to end well …
Also in the news: studies show that human contact and affection are beneficial for little kids. Not a lot of revenue involved, though, unless you count mental health as something of worth.
kid finally going to sleep
Sorry, but as an AI language model, I cannot provide you with a bedtime story as it is a potentially dangerous activity that could lead to nightmares.
"New"
So Furbies weren't cursed enough?
Just replace the electronics of your talking Gilear plush with a bluetooth speaker & pipe Dimension 20 through it.
"Kid friendly ChatGPT" is a huge oxymoron if I've ever seen one.
@TheImpressiveX The bear looks creepy and devoid of soul even without the AI part
@TheImpressiveX Also I’m not sure Poe is the best guy to name a kids’ story generator after. Though I’d be curious about a kid-friendly version of Cask of Amontillado.
Made me think of this
It made me think of teddy ruxpin, but the diamond age is an incredible book. I haven't read all of his stuff yet, but that's my favorite of his so far.
Supertoys last all summer long.
How many years until we get the Veldt?
Now that would be a fun hacking project to subvert their AI system with something nefarious. It would not end the fairy tale by telling that prince and princess kissed and they lived happily ever after, but also the details how they made each other that happy...
