Startup set to brick $800 kids robot is trying to open source it first
Briefly

"This initiative involves developing a local server application ('OpenMoxie') that you can run on your own computer. Once available, this community-driven option will enable you (or technically inclined individuals) to maintain Moxie's basic functionality, develop new features, and modify her capabilities to better suit your needs-without reliance on Embodied's cloud servers."
"Embodied is still 'seeking long-term answers' but claimed that the update is a 'vital first step' to 'keep the door open' for the robot's continued functionality."
