ChatGPT-style Teddy Bears Could Read Bedtime Stories Toymaker Claims

De ARRU

Teddy bears that read your children stories sounds like a premise for a horror film - but one expert says it will become a reality in just five years. 

Allan Wong, co-founder of toymaker VTech, thinks teddies will be fitted with AI that will offer an alternative to parents reading to their kids. 

Like a cross between ChatGPT and www.b-g-t.ru Furby, the toy would listen to everything the child says and use the data to create personalised bedtime tales just for them. 

AI-enabled teddies will likely be available in 2028, Wong said, although he admitted the possibilities of smart tech are 'a little scary'. 

Smart toys by created Wong's firm have already been the subject of a Which? report as they could potentially be vulnerable to hacking by strangers.
