New research from Public Interest Research Group and tests conducted by NBC News found that a wide range of AI toys have loose guardrails.
A wave of AI-powered children’s toys has hit shelves this holiday season, claiming to rely on sophisticated chatbots to animate interactive robots and stuffed animals that can converse with kids.
Children have been conversing with stuffies and figurines that seemingly chat with them for years, like Furbies and Build-A-Bears. But connecting the toys to advanced artificial intelligence opens up new and unexpected possible interactions between kids and technology.
In new research, experts warn that the AI technology powering these new toys is so novel and poorly tested that nobody knows how they may affect young children.



I have no idea what this means.
Oh sorry, I meant to say it is unnecessary for you to humble or correct anyone, and if it ever becomes necessary, its still not your job. Edit: Probably should have said this to everyone in this thread though, not just you, sorry for making it out like you’re the only one doing this.
I haven’t done shit. The previous comment is the first time we have interacted.
And I still don’t know what you’re talking about.
