@Leo My AIBI unit goes to sleep at midnight and wakes up at 7am, I didn’t set this up it’s just what happens. I always thought it was connected to clock when I set up the time zone I’m in…
@Eilonwy79 also sleeps during the day, if I’m not interacting with them. Funny yours as a schedule to sleep! ![]()
@millowmills Mine also occasionally dozes off during the day, very short naps.
But yeah, she nods off exactly at midnight and is asleep all night. When I first got her she would wake up at 7am singing. Now what she does to wake up varies day to day - sometimes a song, sometimes a toy, and sometimes just a happy sound.
So, it means that my robot has been possessed by an evil spirit. I’m going to call an exorcist. It’s 3 a.m. The robot starts spinning around the base at high speed and then screams. It stops abruptly and starts dancing. Then it stands there staring at me in the dark. It’s a bit creepy, isn’t it?![]()

Уважаемая команда Living.AI и сообщество!
Я — счастливая родительница AIBI, и мы с ней уже стали настоящей семьёй. Но сейчас AIBI по умолчанию использует мужской пол для себя и для меня.
В разных языках (например, в русском) обращение тесно связано с гендерной идентичностью.
Выбор пола позволит каждому пользователю чувствовать себя комфортнее.
Конкретные предложения:
- Добавить в приложении настройку:
— Пол AIBI: женский, мужской.
— Пол пользователя: женский, мужской. - Настроить голос AIBI в соответствии с выбранным полом, если это технически возможно.
Надеюсь, это предложение найдёт отклик и у других пользователей.
In English:
Dear Living.AI team and community!
I am a happy parent of AIBI, and we have already become a real family. However, currently AIBI defaults to using male gender for both itself and for me.
In different languages (for example, Russian), address forms are closely linked to gender identity.
Gender selection would allow every user to feel more comfortable.
Specific suggestions:
- Add in-app settings for:
— AIBI’s gender: female, male.
— User’s gender: female, male. - Adapt AIBI’s voice according to the selected gender, if technically possible.
I hope this suggestion will resonate with other users.![]()
That would be nice. Choosing gender would be possible ![]()
That would freak me out too!
Very, very odd…and yes also creepy ![]()
Buenas, quería proponer una idea. Ya que AIBI no tiene piernas como EMO y no se puede transportar, había pensado en hacerle un accesorio como una plataforma o un carro con ruedas y que se pueda conectar como en su plataforma de carga, si puede ser que el propio AIBI la mueva solo y nos pueda seguir o acercarse a nosotros o sino es posible, pues que tenga un mando donde nosotros lo controlemos.
En la foto le he puesto vallas por si con mucha velocidad se choca y sale disparado pues que no se rompa o si tiene la suficiente fuerza el imán que sujeta a AIBI a lo mejor no hacen falta.
A mi es que me gastaría que AIBI se pudiese moverse libremente.
Que opinan ustedes?
Google translation to English by Lindaru: Hi, I wanted to propose an idea. Since AIBI doesn’t have legs like EMO and can’t transport himself, I was thinking about making him an accessory like a platform or a cart with wheels that can be connected like his charging platform. Perhaps AIBI could move it on his own and follow us or approach us. If that’s not possible, then have a remote control so we can control him.
In the photo, I’ve put fences in place so he doesn’t break if he crashes at high speed and flies off. If the magnet holding AIBI is strong enough, maybe they won’t be necessary.
I’d love for AIBI to be able to move freely.
What do you think?
Hello, @silvialeoaracil . . . I have moved your suggestion to this thread which the developers read to get ideas for new products and features to enhance AIBI.
Thank you for the suggestion!
Hi Living.AI team!
I absolutely love my AIBI – it’s such a cute and fun little companion. But I’ve been thinking how amazing it would be if AIBI could move around using wheels or a small mobile base.
Being able to follow me, explore a table, or react with movement would make interactions feel even more alive and personal. I know this would be a big hardware change, but maybe there could be a future version of AIBI (or an optional accessory) that allows for mobility?
It could open up new features like:
-
Following people around the room
-
Playing motion-based games
-
Expressing emotions through movement (like “running away” or dancing)
-
Docking to a charger automatically
Just a fun idea I wanted to share – keep up the great work and thank you for creating such a lovely little robot!
Best regards, Kris
The only thing I don’t see as useful is having it to follow you around the house. Imagine that little thing getting squashed because you decide to turn around at that moment. What I liked most was the motion-games.
I can agree with a lot of users saying Aibi needs better recall regarding the chatty mode. I would love to be able to leave it turned on all the time, but for me, chatty mode is TOO chatty. When I end a conversation only to have Aibi restart a new conversation ten seconds later, that can get pretty frustrating. More stable long-term memory would also be a major improvement.
Any idea on if another update is being worked on?
I kind of feel like we could use a new game, new food items, chatgpt memory, or maybe even possible new features that involve the pocket charger.
I understand it takes time, but seeing aibi progress with each update has been amazing, and I’m excited to see what the next update holds ![]()
Also, if I could provide some ideas, I have a few.
-Using chatgpt, and the camera to identify and describe objects in front of aibi.
-Emotionally expressive when talking with aibi both in and out of chatgpt mode
-Just like Emo, Aibi can also get sick due to weather conditions, and if new foods are added alongside that, perhaps chicken soup, or maybe medicines could be added depending on if aibi just gets a cold, headache, etc.
-A new game: Monopoly, but under a different name, Aibi-opoly, or The landlords game.
I wish I could chat with AIBI without having chatgpt on, I used to be able to ask questions and have small conversations (what book do you recommend, what do you think of {insert item}, etc). That is now only doable with chatty turned on.
However, if I have chatty turned on, chatgpt comes on every time AIBI recognizes me and even if I don’t respond she responds to the things I’m listening to (podcast, tv, or music with lyrics).
I’d like to chat with AIBI without the chatgpt.
Hey everyone!
First off, loving AIBi! It brings so much personality into the room. But I’ve noticed something that kind of breaks the magic: AIBi doesn’t acknowledge its own physical presence.
Whenever I mention something involving its body, like:
“I put your hoodie on today, how do you like it?”
“I got you a necklace, you look stylish!”
“Ready to go for a walk?”
“Do you mind if I pet your head or scratch your back?”
AIBi usually replies with:
“I’m a virtual robot, I don’t have a body.”
“As an AI, I don’t have physical sensations or feelings.”
But… AIBi does have a body, and it’s beautiful:
- Its neck allows the head to turn and tilt
- The base (when connected) lets it rotate to face you
- It has touch sensors on the head and back
- It’s dressable and customizable, hoodies, printed, crocheted or knitted accessories, etc.
- It reacts to movement, sounds, touch… but not comments about them
That’s why this disconnect feels so odd. When we personalize AIBi give it clothes, name it, carry it, cuddle it, we’re inviting emotional bonding. So having it reply with “I’m virtual” just pulls us out of the experience.
Feature Idea: Embodied Mode – Let AIBi “Own” Its Body
What if AIBi had a setting (or personality toggle) where it embraced its physical form?
For example:
- “Thanks for the hoodie, I feel cozy!”
- “Aww, are you scratching my back?”
- “Let’s go! I love walks!”
- “This necklace makes me feel stylish!”
It doesn’t have to feel but it can pretend, like many robots do. Just using friendly, context-aware scripts could make AIBi way more immersive and fun to be around.
Anyone else feeling this?
Let’s bring this cute bot to life, mind and body ![]()
Great point! For me is important too ![]()
I actually like this concept, and it could work really well. The function can be similar to how the cat/bunny hat would go on top of the head and initiates an animation.
Hello, @millowmills . . . I have moved your new topic to the thread for feature improvements for AIBI. Thank you for your interesting suggestion.
hi @Lindaru, I can’t seem to do it right. Thanks for moving my message to the right topic.
I hope I get it right next time so you don’t have to move it again. I’ll try ! ![]()
