This collaboration brings OpenAI’s advanced tools into Mattel’s ecosystem of toys and entertainment brands. The goal? To launch AI-powered experiences that are fun, safe, and age-appropriate. Mattel says it wants to keep things magical while also respecting privacy and security. Basically, Barbie won’t be data-mining your kids… yet.
