generative AI is in phones. It's in laptops, and now it's in children's toys. This is Po, the AI story bear, the first AI teddy bear with a swo smile and a twinkle in his eye. Forming him into a Mindless zombie, it reads AOW stories created by chat GPT 40 from OpenAI, and this toy is hitting retail stores this August for $50. Here's how it works: using an app, kids pick the characters, the objects, the setting, and themes of the story that they want the bear to create. And really, it's chat GPT that's generating a short tail on the back end. It's going through filters and then back into the app, which is Bluetooth connected to the Bear. Once Upon a Time, in a world where dreams came to life, there lived a young ninja girl named Sakura. That's one of the pre-loaded stories in this sample bear. It's a story of a ninja that fights nightmare monsters in Cy land. Now the bear can tell stories in Over 20 Languages. You can save stories and play.

them offline by just clicking the buttons in the ears. Now, I've been given this early sample of Po to try with my kids at home, and I'm told that the voices I'm experiencing are not the final voice of the bear. But I wanted to show you this to give you an idea of how it all works. The final voice is coming in partnership with 11 Labs. It's a company that makes generative AI voices. But even just sitting here filming this video, there's been a few other voices that I've noticed come out: a brave mermaid named Marina swam speedily through the corridors filled with glowing tanks and strange machines, a roller-skating nurse sipping a milkshake, a prince riding a motorcycle, and a cowgirl enjoying some Asian noodles. Here's a sample the company gave me of what the final Poe could sound like: The Dragon's Gold. Once Upon a Time in the magical land of Everwood, there lived a brave and clever young girl named Lily. She had bright red hair, sparkling green eyes, and always wore a cape made of

feathers. Now I have a lot of thoughts after playing with this with my kids because there is something weird as a parent about not knowing what an AI machine is going to say to my children. But all the stories we generated were just kind of quirky. The worst of it was that sometimes they got a little spooky. I mean you do have options in here for some creepy characters like zombies. And in one story, zombies were having their heads knocked off in battle. A baseball player swung a metal bat, knocking zombie heads off their bodies. Ziron scowled and raised his hands. But the final version will let parents block certain monsters or scary themes if they want to. The shuttle was haunted by the ghost of York Underbridge, an insane astronaut who had died in an explosion years ago. What dwa ha, cackled Underbridge's ghost. Let's just make a story up right now to show you. All right, let's pick an adventure story. Okay, we can make a mermaid in this story, a spooky mummy, a robot, yeah.

let's do a robot. Robot's a bad guy. We'll have it include some jelly beans and a fart, why not? And we'll have it involve teleportation, and it'll be in a secret lab. All right, make up the story. Okay, it's ready. Deep beneath the ocean, where the water shimmered with glowing fish and hidden treasures, lived a mermaid named Coral. One day, Coral received a mysterious message in a bottle. It read, Help needed at the top-secret lab, urgent. Suddenly, the door behind her clanked open, and in stomped a giant robot. Who dares enter my lab? it boomed with a voice like thunder. Coral, swallowing her fear, replied, I'm Coral, and I got a message for help. What's going on? So the stories it generates kind of exist in this literary uncanny valley where there are some random turns the story can take that can be hard to follow. Or maybe sometimes the words are a little strange, like, uh, maybe the vocab isn't something that you would always

see in a kid story with luck unravel the cosmic knot that doomed her kingdom to unending torment. Did you understand it not that much in my time with it? Sometimes the kids were kind of puzzled about what was happening. It said so many things. It says so many things. Part of the struggle is that during my test, some of the voices it was giving me didn't have pauses or rhythm, the kind of rhythm that you would hear from a voice actor. Maybe it'll be a little easier as the voices improve, but this of course makes me think about my childhood and I grew up with the first animatronic talking toy, Teddy Ruxpin. And here you had this bear that played audio from cassette tapes with matching books, and there was a team of writers and musicians and voice actors that sang. Parents knew what story they were buying in this adventure series about friendship. Now the art that made Teddy Ruxpin special has been exported to a machine in the cloud. That's when he realized the horrible truth. This was no

mere robot, but some sort of evil alien construct straight out of a Cosmic nightmare. Wait, that's the story. On the plus side, here we got an activity for a kid where they can practice listening, and they can get a random story every time through the app. They can kind of have some control over what they generate, conjuring everything from a flock of ghostly seagulls to a tornado of fried chicken. But it was no use. With a tremendous flash, the zombie horde turned to dust. Now, at one point, it felt like Po became a game with my kids 'cause they were trying to make a story with every character and every object selected. So, kids sometimes start thinking about how they can make something really crazy. What if you do all of them? What if you do all of them? Go, go ahead, do it, do all of them. You see, with Po, it's kind of like trusting a stranger to tell a story to your kid, but the stranger is a robot that other tech companies trust. By that, I mean Apple. Apple seems to be okay with using chat

GPT to tell stories to your kids because in Apple's June worldwide developers conference presentation an executive said a handy use of chat. GPT would be to have it tell your six-year-old a bedtime story about butterflies. The PO bear takes that same idea. It puts limits on the subjects you can pick and the length of the story. And it sends it to another AI voice program. And the whole thing plays through a squishy bear that takes batteries. Interesting little time we're living in where AI is now cute. This toy is made by a company called Skyrocket. It makes silly talking toys that use modern tech and sensors and ways to make kids laugh. But major toy makers have been looking at this question of using Ai and toys for a few years now. I have seen it at the big toy shows I visit. There are robots that tap into generative AI to chat with kids or answer questions. And some of them right now are pretty expensive. And when I go to these industry events. They're are panels exploring how to use generative.

AI in toys. I mean, take a year ago, where the CEO of VTEC said he saw an AI storytelling teddy bear would be the norm by 2028. Well, it is here with us now in 2024, even if this PO testing voice is still being worked out. I do expect it to evolve fast. Let me know how you feel about it all in the comments below. You know, AI is a shiny new toy right now for every Tech bro out there, but will it also be in your kids' shiny new toys? I'm bridg Cary.

인공지능 스토리 곰, 포 어린이 장난감의 혁신

포는 OpenAI의 채팅 GPT 40을 사용하여 어린이를 위한 맞춤형 스토리를 생성하는 최초의 AI 테디베어로, 50달러에 판매되고 있습니다.

이 곰 인형의 앱을 통해 아이들은 스토리 요소를 선택할 수 있으며, 생성된 이야기는 20개 이상의 언어로 제공되고 오프라인에서도 이용할 수 있습니다.

포의 최종 버전에는 11랩과의 파트너십을 통해 제작된 음성이 추가되어 어린이들에게 상상력이 풍부하고 다양한 이야기를 제공할 예정입니다.

기발하고 으스스한 AI 생성 동화

AI가 생성한 어린이 이야기는 좀비나 유령 셔틀과 같은 소름 끼치는 캐릭터가 등장하는 등 기발하고 때로는 으스스한 방향으로 전개될 수 있습니다.

이야기는 무작위적이고 때로는 이상한 줄거리로 문학적으로 기괴한 계곡에 존재하지만, 새로운 버전에서는 부모가 무서운 테마를 차단할 수 있습니다.

예를 들어 인어, 거대한 로봇, 젤리빈, 바다 밑의 일급 비밀 실험실에서 일어나는 순간 이동을 다룬 이야기가 있습니다.

어린이를 위한 스토리텔링의 진화

대표적인 애니매트로닉 장난감인 테디 럭스핀이 어린이를 위한 클라우드 기반 스토리텔링 앱으로 진화했습니다.

이 앱을 사용하면 아이들이 임의의 이야기를 생성하고 콘텐츠를 어느 정도 제어할 수 있어 창의력과 상상력을 자극할 수 있습니다.

하지만 일부 부모들은 로봇에게 자녀의 스토리텔링 경험을 맡기는 것에 대해 우려를 표하며 전통적인 형태의 엔터테인먼트가 현대화되는 것에 대해 의문을 제기하기도 합니다.

포베어: 어린이를 위한 새로운 인공지능 동화 구연가

스카이로켓이라는 회사는 AI를 사용하여 주제와 이야기 길이에 제한이 있는 아이들에게 잠자리 이야기를 들려주는 'PO 베어'라는 장난감을 만들었습니다.

이 장난감은 최신 기술과 센서를 사용하여 아이들을 즐겁게 해주며, 주요 장난감 제조업체들이 장난감에 AI를 사용하여 아이들을 웃게 만드는 트렌드를 반영하고 있습니다.

이러한 개발은 대형 장난감 업계 행사에서 볼 수 있듯이 제너레이티브 AI를 사용하여 아이들과 상호 작용하고 이야기를 들려주는 것에 대한 관심이 높아진 데 따른 것입니다.

스토리텔링 테디베어를 비롯한 AI 기반 장난감은 예상보다 일찍 출시되었으며, 현재 음성 테스트가 진행 중이며 빠른 진화가 예상됩니다.

장난감에 AI를 접목하는 것이 하나의 트렌드로 자리 잡으면서 어린이 장난감에 AI가 보편화될 것인지에 대한 의문이 제기되고 있습니다.

캐리 브릿지는 장난감 산업에 대한 AI의 영향을 예상하고 이 기술 발전에 대한 다른 사람들의 생각을 공유해달라고 요청합니다.
