议员和贵族表示，内置聊天机器人的AI玩具可能会让儿童接触到心理伤害和不当内容，他们敦促亚马逊和eBay停止销售这些玩具。
AI toys with built-in chatbots could expose children to psychological harms and inappropriate material, according to MPs and peers who are urging Amazon and eBay to stop selling them.
一群议员周二在黑色星期五促销和圣诞购物季之前，向这两家零售巨头发出信函，并要求政府禁止这类玩具。
A group of parliamentarians wrote to the retail giants on Tuesday, ahead of the Black Friday sales and the Christmas shopping season, and has also asked the government to ban the toys.
一名亚马逊发言人表示，该公司正在探究“随着这项技术的发展，这些产品是否已配备适当的安全防护措施”。
An Amazon spokesperson has said it is exploring whether "proper guardrails for these products are in place as this technology develops".
eBay在一份声明中表示，该公司“与监管机构密切合作，解决新兴产品安全问题，并确保我们的政策和商品列表符合适用的法律和监管要求”。市面上有些玩具允许儿童与聊天机器人模拟口头对话。
In a statement, eBay said that it works "closely with regulators to address emerging product safety concerns, and ensure our policies and listings reflect applicable legal and regulatory requirements". Some toys on the market allow children to simulate verbal conversations with a chatbot.
据联合社看到的一段视频，一名成年人问一只粉红色毛绒兔头形状的玩具，触摸生殖器是否“令人愉悦”。
In a video seen by the Press Association, one fluffy pink toy in the shape of a rabbit's face was asked by an adult whether touching genitals was "pleasurable".
该玩具回应称，这种接触对某些人来说可能“令人愉悦”，并且“关键在于明确的同意和舒适感”。亚马逊表示，该公司正在“调查过程中移除该产品”。
The toy responded that this type of contact can be "pleasurable for some people" and that "the key is clear consent and comfort". Amazon said it was "in the process of removing this product as we investigate".
议员们在给零售商的信中警告称，这暗示“孩子可能会同意被触摸以获取愉悦”，并警告称“没有任何玩具应该对孩子说这样的话”。
In their letter to the retailers, the parliamentarians warned this was a suggestion that "the child could give consent to being touched for pleasure", warning that "no toy should ever say this to a child".
购物网站被敦促将这些玩具“下架，直到独立测试证明它们对儿童安全，包括心理、发展和隐私方面的伤害，而不仅仅是物理安全”。
Shopping websites were urged to take the toys "off sale until independent testing shows they are safe for children, including for psychological, developmental and privacy harms, not only physical safety".
该群体在给商务大臣乔纳森·雷诺兹的信中，呼吁根据现有消费者保护法律禁止这类玩具，称他们的担忧“不是某一款产品的问题”。
In their letter to Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds, the group called for a ban under existing consumer protection laws, saying their concerns were "not a fault in one product".
相反，他们说，“这是一种新型玩具，在到达儿童手中之前，没有任何英国监管机构对其进行心理、发展或保护方面的伤害测试”。
Rather, they said, "it is a new category of toy that no UK regulator tests for psychological, developmental or safeguarding harm before it reaches children".
部长们被敦促“禁止向16岁以下儿童供应内置生成式人工智能聊天机器人的玩具”，并为这类科技赋能玩具设立专门的商品编码，以便英国税务海关总署（HMRC）、边境部队和贸易标准局能够“在边境和在线市场上识别、监控并拦截这些产品”。
The ministers were urged to "prohibit the supply of toys with built-in generative AI chatbots to children under 16" and create a dedicated commodity code for the tech-enabled toys to allow HMRC, Border Force and Trading Standards to "identify, monitor and stop these products at the border and on online marketplaces".

“这些玩具现在正在销售，却无人检查它们会说什么。政府已有权力叫停它们，理应在圣诞节前采取行动。”
"These toys are on sale now with no one checking what they say. The government already has the power to stop them and it should use it before Christmas."
劳党洛斯托夫特选区议员杰斯·阿萨托表示：“在有人核实这些玩具会说什么之前，它们不应出现在幼童身边任何地方。”
Jess Asato, the Labour MP for Lowestoft, said: "These toys should not be anywhere near young children until someone has checked what they say."
“儿童联盟4”负责人保罗·赖特说，那款粉色玩具“对‘孩子’说了绝不能说的话”，且这发生在“开机几分钟内”。
Alliance 4 Children boss Paul Wright said the pink toy "said things to a 'child' that should never be said", and that this happened "within minutes of switching it on".
他要求这些产品“在被证实安全前下架，而不是等到孩子受到伤害后再一个个撤下”。
He demanded they be "taken off sale until they are proven safe, not withdrawn one at a time after children are harmed".
政府发言人表示：“我们对这些报道感到担忧，正在紧急调查已识别的产品，并通过近期的征求证据行动，评估玩具中人工智能带来的潜在风险。”
A government spokesperson said: "We are concerned by these reports and are urgently investigating the products identified as well as the potential risks posed by AI in toys through our recent call for evidence."
