Humane’s AI Pin Faces Harsh Criticism from Reviewers
Humane’s highly anticipated AI Pin, a lapel clip-on device aiming to revolutionize the way we interact with technology, has recently come under fire from critics. The Verge, a prominent tech publication, slammed the AI Pin in their review, calling it “thoroughly unfinished” and “totally broken.” The review also questioned the device’s steep $700 price tag and $24 monthly subscription.
Reviewers across the board have noted numerous issues with the AI Pin, including slow hardware and software, inconvenient design, and a lack of basic functionality. CNET’s Scott Stein specifically mentioned the device’s projector display as frustrating and nearly useless outdoors in normal sunlight.
One of the most concerning aspects of the AI Pin was its failure in tests for basic understanding of commands and translation, casting doubt on its overall usability. Despite promises from Humane for forthcoming updates to address these issues, reviewers have expressed dissatisfaction with the device’s current lack of phone synchronization and functionality.
Wired and other publications have criticized the AI Pin for being too basic and not useful, with some users reporting that the device becomes uncomfortably hot during use. While Humane insists that updates are on the way to improve the device’s performance, reviewers remain skeptical about its overall usability.
As Humane works to address these issues, it remains to be seen whether the AI Pin will live up to the hype as a smartphone replacement. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
