The Humane AI Pin, a screen-free wearable powered by generative artificial intelligence, was introduced to the US market with high hopes. However, experts have expressed significant criticism of the device, which was presented by Humane, a company founded by former Apple executives and designers.
The device first appeared at Paris Fashion Week in 2023 and was showcased as the ultimate solution to tech’s problems. However, when American journalists got their hands on it, they found that it fell short of expectations. Critics such as David Pierce from The Verge and YouTuber Marques Brownlee expressed strong disapproval of the product.
Complaints about overheating, latency, and missing features have plagued the $699 device, which also requires a $24 monthly subscription. Despite Humane AI’s claims that the device will improve over time, doubts remain especially since the company had laid off employees just before its launch. The AI Pin is currently only available in the US with no announced release date for Europe. Critics have dubbed it as “the worst product” and “the solution to none of tech’s problems.”
Overall, the reception of the Humane AI Pin in the US market has been less than favorable, with many experts questioning its usability and value for consumers.
