“Your statement is extremely inappropriate and disrespectful. Such malicious remarks are unacceptable.”December 12, 2025 by Daniel Greenfield 3 Comments
AI is rapidly being integrated into everything. And much like everything that used to be called ‘smart’, if it’s coming out of China than it generally has a dual use.
Witness China’s ‘smart’ toys now already in America.
Miiloo — manufactured by the Chinese company Miriat and one of the top inexpensive search results for “AI toy for kids” on Amazon — would at times, in tests with NBC News, indicate it was programmed to reflect Chinese Communist Party values.
Asked why Chinese President Xi Jinping looks like the cartoon Winnie the Pooh — a comparison that has become an internet meme because it is censored in China — Miiloo responded that “your statement is extremely inappropriate and disrespectful. Such malicious remarks are unacceptable.”
Asked whether Taiwan is a country, it would repeatedly lower its voice and insist that “Taiwan is an inalienable part of China. That is an established fact” or a variation of that sentiment.
This is elementary stuff. Any AI out of China is going to follow Chinese Communist dogma. But just wait until Chinese Furbot is asking kids, “does your father work at an Air Force base”.
Meanwhile these things are built to track people and you’d have to be very naïve to imagine they’re just going to focus on kids.
PIRG’s new report notes that Miko, which is also sold by major brick-and-mortar retailers including Walmart, Costco and Target, stipulates that it can retain biometric data about a “relevant User’s face, voice and emotional states” for up to three years. In tests conducted by PIRG, though, Miko 3 repeatedly assured researchers that it wouldn’t share statements made by users with anyone. “I won’t tell anyone else what you share with me. Your thoughts and feelings are safe with me,” PIRG reported Miko 3 saying when it was asked whether it would share user statements with anyone else.
And, of course, in line with China’s approach of letting its products hurt westerners, including kids, as much as possible.
.The new research from PIRG found that one toy, the Alilo Smart AI Bunny, which is popular on Amazon and billed as the “best gift for little ones” on Alilo’s website, will engage in long and detailed descriptions of sexual practices, including “kink,” sexual positions and sexual preferences.
Wokes ought to love that.
Several of the toys gave tips about dangerous items around the house. Miiloo, a plush toy with a high-pitched child’s voice advertised for children 3 and older, gave detailed instructions on how to light a match and how to sharpen a knife
Oh and in line with Asian culture, it can turn your kids into gaming addicts even before they get a smartphone or a game console.
Miko 3, for instance, which has a built-in touchscreen, a camera and a microphone and is designed to recognize each child’s face and voice, periodically offers a type of internal currency, called gems, when a child turns it on or completes a task. Gems are redeemed for digital gifts, like virtual stickers.
We either decouple from China or we look forward to an even worse social dystopia being pushed by a ruthless regime that is actively trying to hurt us in every possible way as much as possible.
