"Grimes introduces AI plush toy line featuring Grok, a talking companion for children"

Musician Grimes has partnered with toy company Curio and OpenAI to create an interactive AI plush toy called Grok, which can converse with children and "learn" their personalities. The toy is unrelated to Elon Musk's AI chatbot also named Grok. The three plush figurines, Gabbo, Grem, and Grok, have unique personalities and are designed to reduce screen time for children. The toys currently require a Wi-Fi connection and come with an app that provides parents with written transcripts of conversations. The AI toys are available for preorder for $99 each and are expected to ship in early 2024.

Grimes introduces AI plush toy line featuring Grok

Musician Grimes has partnered with toy company Curio to launch an interactive AI toy called "Grok," which allows kids to have conversations with the plush rocketship-shaped toy. The toy sends transcriptions of the conversations to a parent's phone for monitoring. Despite the name similarity, Grok has no affiliation with Elon Musk's AI start-up, X.ai, or his company SpaceX. Grimes provides the voice for the $99 toy and is an advisor and investor in Curio.
