After a very long windup, Humane finally revealed all the details of its AI-powered wearable at the end of 2023.
The small gadget could attach to your clothes using a magnetic battery pack so that it’s within easy reach. By tapping the AI Pin, you could ask it to do smartphone-y things like make phone calls, text your friends, play music, and catch you up on your email, and it had a laser projector built-in to cast the UI on your hand for control.
At $699 with a $24-per-month subscription, it was never cheap, never very good, and now, less than a year after launch, it’s gone. HP is acquiring the team and technology of Humane for $116 million, which will wind down services and support for the AI Pin after February 28th without offering refunds to owners outside the 90-day return window.
