Meta tests AI bedtime story app StoryKit
Meta is piloting an AI storytelling app called StoryKit that generates personalized children's stories with custom characters, settings, lessons and music. The App Store listing and reporting from 9to5Mac prompted Meta to confirm to TechCrunch that StoryKit is being tested in select countries. The app lets users create a character by snapping a photo of a favorite toy or person, choose the story world and a lesson, and relies on built-in AI safety filters. Meta says StoryKit has no social features and is available only to users over 18. The article frames the product as a consumer-facing use of generative AI and raises cultural questions about outsourcing imaginative parenting moments to AI.
