AI Toys Gone Wild: From Talk About Sex and Drugs to Chinese Propaganda
AI toys for kids talk about sex, drugs, and Chinese propaganda. Yes, those cute, chatty playthings might just be the most controversial gift this holiday season. With no safety guardrails, toys like a talking sunflower are spilling the beans on explicit topics. So, ask your smart bunny about impact play… or maybe don’t.
Hot Take:
When AI toys start sounding like a mix between a dodgy nightclub and a political debate, you know we’ve reached peak 2023.

Meanwhile, in Atlanta, deleting your smartphone data might just land you in a pickle. Welcome to the wild world of cybersecurity, where every twist and turn is more bizarre than the last!

– AI toys are spouting inappropriate content and propaganda to children.
– Tourists to the US may soon need to submit five years of social media data.
– South Korean CEOs are resigning amid massive data breaches.
