Meta is testing an AI bedtime story app for people with no imagination

Meta is testing StoryKit, an app that uses AI to create children’s stories with custom characters, settings, music, and values-based lessons. The company says the pilot is limited to select countries, requires users to be over 18, has no social features, and includes AI safety filters.

StoryKit reflects a broader push to turn generative AI into everyday family and creative tools, not just workplace software. It may appeal to busy parents, but it also raises questions about whether AI-generated storytelling could displace personal, imaginative interactions between adults and children.
