Reminds me of Neal Stephenson&#x27;s &quot;The Diamond Age: Or, A Young Lady&#x27;s Illustrated Primer&quot;.  Between all of the more typical cyberpunk, nanotech adventure stuff, there&#x27;s quite a bit about how the &quot;smart&quot; toy (in this case, the Primer) influences development of the individuals using them.  There&#x27;s also a bit about the difference between users who were connected to a specific person doing the voice aspect and the users who got random staff or even automated &quot;personalities&quot;.
