Startups Launch AI-Powered Collectible Figurines For Desks

At CES this year, startups Olli (HeyMates) and Buddyo unveiled collectible figurines and smart stands that host LLM-driven chatbots, letting users converse with characters like Einstein or Nintendo/IP figures. HeyMates plans a Kickstarter later this year with three initial figures (Einstein, Zara, Chandler), while Buddyo ships an AI Pod compatible with Amiibo and NFC bases and an app-driven personality system.
