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.
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.
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.
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.
What fresh new hell is this?
@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.
And then the crow told his brothe ERROR CODE 789
“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.”
Pastes 300k tokens worth of scp and creepy pasta lore into the prompt
“Sweet dreams, Timmy”
Just replace the electronics of your talking Gilear plush with a bluetooth speaker & pipe Dimension 20 through it.
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.
This could go wrong so many ways
Like poison mushrooms wrong
Edit: for those unaware apparently a couple people died after buying ai mushroom identification books off Amazon.
One thing is sure, AO3 is part of the training set…
🤯
Supertoys last all summer long.
I remember the last time we put an AI in a children’s toy.
Yoda: no… there was another…
Not to mention-
Y’all forgot the actual AI homicidal toy
Talky Tina would just make M3gan’s head explode with its doll magic.
No love for Small Soldiers out here?
Having seen the movie, no. No love.
