I e been wanting to do this with a basic stuffed animal now for a while.

Just basic interactions with a child plus lessons and a voice would be game changing for the toy world.

If you like point and click adventures check out https://store.steampowered.com/app/1426010/STASIS_BONE_TOTEM... - one of the playable characters is an AI teddy bear and is a great character with fantastic writing.

5 minutes in: This bear is creeping me out.

Like using phones as babysitters, just 100x worse.

I don't doubt someone's gonna invent it, but yikes. Imagine telling kiddo their beloved sentient toy is dead because mum and dad can't afford the ever-rising subscription fees anymore.

A teddy bear is too bulky for convenience. How about Tamagotchi but it talks to you. Talkagotchi. Basically that horrible Friend necklace but in a cutely-colored egg shape that clips to your backpack. I want to not be alive.

edit: when my kid asks for one I'll know it's time to move the family to a cabin deep in the woods.

"Who was your best friend in your childhood?" "The AI teddy bear, definitely, I remember every single ad he would tell me, then I would nag my mom to buy me those toys, good times"

"But then my dad lost his job so we had to kill him to save money. Sometimes I still snuggle his corpse."

Careful with that ambiguity...
