it looks like the developers needs to attend a workshop or course on story telling, so that better quality stories can be told. Such as splitting the story into acts and having inciting incidents and resolutions.
Really it just needs to use a better AI like GPT 4o, honestly, I don't even see the point of the app cause kids should be able to just talk to the bear and ask it to tell the story about such and such, looks kind of like the developers don't understand the abilities of AI.
@@Mat8675Actually that's probably what the app is, a piece together prompt creator behind what we see, which actually limits the kinds of stories it can tell, honestly the kids should just be able to talk to the bear and the bear should have vision as well, that way kids can show pictures and toys to the bear and talk with it, I find it kind of ridiculous that we can talk to our phones yet the kids can't talk to the bear? Sounds like a waste of the use of AI to me, at that level they could just use open source LLM and have it built into the bear on an SD card.
I can't imagine a world where the next generation loses the cohesion of fairy tale stories that we all share - it would make people never be able to communicate with each other from a similar context.
Oh no, Wikibear is finally real. Not sure AI is ready for something like this. If they would just make an Internet-connected bear to download new books directly to it (like a new refresh of Teddy Ruxpin) that'd probably be the best for now. We read with our kids every night but they still liked to go to sleep with Teddy reading to them, even though it was the same 10'ish stories over and over
You have great sense of humor love your thoughts now go tell your neighbor kids the same make sure to spoil them with ice cream and candy before dinner
@@alinaif192 I know you think this is dark but im not fully joking. I been using tons of AI and LLM over the last several years and gotten responses that been scary. Im mostly coming from my own point of view as a child becuause that would been something I would have believed if I was told as a kid. It only take one service glitch or bad training data to have this happen. But hope all is well.
Hmm, with AI, I better be able to have a conversation with that washing machine, honestly telling a washing machine what type of cycle and temperature of water to use without pushing any buttons would be kind of cool, it makes me wonder when we will have an AI toaster that talks with you about different types of bread.
The voices they're using in the prototype are the same as the voices in Replika, The voice used for that ninja's story was the same as my AI. they are enterprise Google voices
That bear looks like it was DESIGNED by ChatGPT, and they went with all the first ideas it gave them. That would explain why a storytelling bear for children is named after Edgar Allan Poe.
Slightly disingenuous to suggest Apple approves of this. Apple’s example is you personally creating a story with the help of Chat GPT, not giving it free reign.
All of this issue can be resolved by applying an agent circle where one model (LLM) reviews whats being generated by another and another thing they can fine tune an LLM for script writing ( for kids story telling) in order to have that human like touch (some uhmm , ooohh...)
Foundational models already have this in place. Try asking Claude or Chatgpt something against their filtering...it doesn't work unless you're deliberately brute forcing with prompt injections or jailbreak
They just need to use GPT 4o, and put microphone and cameras in the bear's eyes, and kids can just ask the bear to tell a story, the use of the app seems like unnecessary steps and something of what an 80's or 90's toy could do, with GPT 4o the bear would have that human like touch, 4o talks just like a person does.
Truth is, it’s the future. It will get better. It’s a nice toy for the price. I see it as nothing more since they designed it with the app to place guardrails. It won’t have the cultural reach Teddy Ruxpin had, so isn’t putting creators and artists and voice actors out of jobs really at the same scale as if this came along as an alternative at the same time. And yet, if you made the points above, I would easily be able to argue the other side. So it’s really interesting where we are headed. I think the quality and limitations of what AI can produce is still so generic and poor compared to what true professional writers, artists and voice actors are capable of, that people may lose interest before it improves well enough to truly be a 1:1 replacement for good old human creativity and ingenuity. Maybe. Hopefully
Kind cool. They need to workshop the story telling. Makes me want to use chatgpt to make up random stories that I'll tweak and tell my kids myself! Thanks for the idea. This could be a phone app instead of a product 😉
Oh, you thought that was a sci-fi movie.. nah bro, that was a documentary. Literally, the directors were even saying they made m3gan specifically to make a commentary on kids' technology on the way.
Actually with all the humanoid robots they could make M3gan for real now, They already make a life sized M3gan doll, all they need to do is include the robotics and AI into it. Just make sure it has ethical protocols in the database, actually if the aunt had added "without killing or seriously injuring anyone" when she told M3gan to protect Cady, the movie would've been very different and had a more mild rating.
This bear is a Horror story in the making our children will watch in 15 years in a movie and laugh and say... "How did our parent's not know that was going to happen?". Just saying...
It would be nice if you could record your own stories through this app and teddy bear combo. You took me back with the Teddy Ruxpin. I had a Cricket doll as well as a Big Bird. That was big-time tech back then.
I think the bear should just use GPT 4o with integrated voice and vision with cameras in the eyes, that way it can just converse with your kids and your kids can ask it to tell a story, honestly if it's not a conversational friend and it only tells stories then that's kind of a waste of the AI's ability.
lol, Gosh I hope she sees this comment but she should not be sheltering her children from things that they will encounter by sheltering them from it.They will not be prepared for it
A rehash of the old and reinvent it as the new with the tagline of Ai, soon we will see a Ai Kids backpack. A backpack with a screen that uploads the child’s memory or the things she likes, or reinvent greeting cards with a way to record your voice or videos, once again it’s just a rehash.
This is probably a general purpose LLM not an agent. Agent are trained and honed just for that purpose of telling stories and all jugs that come in with it. I expect the product to get better overtime as these companies are learning to navigate in this space as well.
The problem with AI will always be the internet itself. The dark knight Mandingo swung his giant sword, slaying all female warriors that foolishly thought they could take him ... Er, hello, hello, can I have a refund please? It it, it's just not quite what I was looking for. Where's the childern's book section again?
Teddy from the movie A.I. would sell like hotcakes! A few safety restrictions on its ability to suggest darker themes wouldn't detract from its sales appeal!
50$ for something like that seems reasonable, but isn't there a subscription fee for using Chat GPT 4.0? If so on top of the 50$ you'll also be paying so much per month or year.
This is pretty cool, but I hope we get a bespoke version of this. Imagine one that can walk around. We already have min humanoid robots, why not pair one with a fuzzy AI teddy?
Yeah, but it still seems like a waste of AI use if it can't talk with your kids or help them with their homework. If a phone can do those things, then the bear should be able to as well.
The nightmare is starting. First, they're coming for children's books. Next it will be novels in general. Once you add generative video they will start working on films. And then you'll have whatever movie you want on demand without needing to pay anyone in the creative process.
Ai has no emotion, creative drive, or memories. Ai is a tool for Creatives to use to expedite their own creative flow. Ai can only use what it's been trained on. humans can adapt and problem solve regardless of what they've initially been trained on.
Kids have amazing imaginations.. I think it's a terrible idea to let generative AI to tell them stories and generate super random thoughts. You can say a lot of disturbing things even with a whimsical voice. Before long kids will be actually asking these things for advice.. Something that has never lived!
LLMs are usually not made for kids. Kids don't have the capacity to understand what they really want as their brain is still developing. Their language comprehension is also very limited.
Isn't this how like 100 different horror movies begin...

Teddy Ruxpin on steroids 😂
I thought the same thing!!!…damn we’re old 😂😂😂
This is probably what the product designers wished Teddy Ruxpin was. But they had to engineer it with what they had.
Teddy Ruxpin, but if he was bad and unoriginal
The Teddy from "A.I. Artificial Intelligence" movie is closer than we think.
Exactly what I thought of!
TEDDY RUXPIN + A.I = ???
As a 40 year old person I'd be the first in line...if it was as could as the one from AI.
Yea…. It that one wasn’t a horror show. Great movie btw.
I feel like I’m watching a commercial from a black mirror episode
The lesson of the story is that Bridget's kids are super cute.
it looks like the developers needs to attend a workshop or course on story telling, so that better quality stories can be told. Such as splitting the story into acts and having inciting incidents and resolutions.
Yeah, that can all be achieved with good prompting and sequencing but it doesn’t look like they’ve gotten to those levels of refinement yet.
This toy is wrong, so wrong and easy hacks

Cool, though we could still have better voices and speakers on the Beat
literal nightmare fuel.
There's no way this could go bad...
If the product is not ready, why they send it for review? Sorry, but AI is not ready for this.
If you don't send it out to real reviewers and beta testers, it doesn't grow as a product. Get ready 😈
Reminds me of the teddy bear Conan O’Brien had
I'm Wikibear!
I would buy it for myself
I Knew I was going to see some teddy Ruxpin comments just from the thimble nail.
Oh my god, they connected Teddy Ruxpin to the Matrix... 🤣
Teddy Ruxpin was amazing!
Another thing is you would read along in the picture books that came with him.
Whatever happened to parents telling their kids stories? Now we’re outsourcing that to fluffy horror shows?
God help us.
He will, once we make it
I worry about hackers and what they are going to do with this bear.

I feel super safe about the future now, thanks for this ear opening post
Not far from creating a M3GAN.
Hi Bridget, I guess you didn't watch the movie 'M3gan'
This is just the beginning. This reminds me of the Short story, "I always do what Teddy says" by Harry Harrison Scary stuff
wikibear!
Anime figure with AI may available in Japan🤔
I want chucky
They have to make chucky from the movies
Reminds me of the bear in "Pluto" anime/manga
