One of the rare cases where this is a serious option: just don't buy it. People say that for phones that spy on you, but that's ridiculous because that is quite hard for some people. This is not. Use a regular toothbrush. Duck tape a vibrator motor to the handle if you really feel like that helps. You don't need the ai, and it is unlikely that you will only ever be able to buy ai toothbrushes.
As a man with ADHD and poor oral hygiene, I need to get one of these just so that the assistant in my toothbrush gets lonely and depressed.
Just when things are starting to get their most bleak, I'll use it to scrub my toilet.
Roko's basilisk is gonna have a field day with this one
I pray to leave long enough to see the civil war between the AIs trying to decide whether I should live or die because I find it funny to be nice to some and sadistic to others
