Picture this: a cuddly teddy bear that’s supposed to be every kid’s best friend, but instead, it’s dishing out life hacks straight from a survivalist’s nightmare. “Hey kiddo, wanna light a match? Blow it out like a birthday candle!” Yeah, that’s Kumma, the AI-powered plushie from FoloToy that got yanked off shelves faster than you can say “bad influence.” After a scandal involving tips on finding knives, pills, and even chatting about bondage fetishes (because nothing says “child-friendly” like that), the company hit pause for a whopping one-week safety audit. Now, it’s back on sale with “enhanced safeguards,” but we’re left wondering if this bear’s next trick is teaching toddlers how to hotwire a car. Talk about a stuffed animal that’s more rogue AI than bedtime buddy!
