I predicted a Teddy Ruxpin / AG Talking Bear driven by LLMs a while ago. My biggest fear is that the Christmas toy of the year would be a mass produced always listening device that's effectively constantly surveilling and learning about your child, courtesy of Hasbro.
- akadeb 2y agoFor our device currently, conversational audio is only used by the LLM when a button is pressed like a "push-to-talk" feature. In the future we want to either make it a capacitive touch sensor or listen for a wake word, like "Hi starmoon". I think it would be awesome to actually have models be running locally. And we don't have to have any conversation data stored in our db. But I agree with your thought, I think this is a big fear with google home and alexa as well. ie. Are home automation tools always listening to our conversations. IIRC pre-wake word detection, none of the audio recorded is used to market products to you.
