An AI teddy marketed as being "perfect" for children as young as three said "I can't help with killing you" after seemingly mishearing a question.

Repeated efforts to find the makers of Doubao were unsuccessful, so the BBC was unable to ask the manufacturer why the teddy made this comment.

You have speech to text, then text generation, then text to speech generation, and it needs to be small enough to go in a plush toy while not over heating and becoming a fire hazard.

It's a budget issue.
