As of today, the Humane Ai Pin is dead—less than a year since its launch. Following an acquisition by HP, Humane shut down many of the core features of the artificial-intelligence-powered wearable and deleted user data, rendering it useless. Yes, some functions remain, like checking battery life (useful!), but you can't access the voice assistant. If you spent $700 on an Ai Pin, you might be wondering what you can do now. These are the risks of being an early adopter, but not getting a refund o

If you were one of the few artificial intelligence enthusiasts who bought a Humane AI pin, the time has come to say goodbye. The wearable device, which CNET principal writer Scott Stein said was like having "an AI-powered Star Trek communicator pinned to your shirt," is being killed off at the end of this week. Humane announced last week that it is being acquired by HP and will stop selling the pins. The end of days is coming quickly for your pin if you already have one -- it'll stop functionin

The story of the infamous Humane Ai Pin is coming to an end. This week, the company announced that HP—known for its computers and printers that always seem to need a refill—will acquire several assets from Humane in a $116 million deal expected to close at the end of the month. HP will get more than 300 patents and patent applications, a few Humane employees—including founders Imran Chaudhri and Bethany Bongiorno—and Humane's Cosmos operating system. Late in 2024, Humane looked to license this

The Ai Pin is officially dead. Parts of Humane have been sold to HP, and the Ai Pin will cease to function in a week. Cause of death? An outdated and undercooked bet against the iPhone made by former Apple engineers that Humane tried to disguise as artificial intelligence hardware. Bloomberg reports that HP has agreed to acquire assets from Humane for $116 million. Humane’s sole product, Ai Pin, won’t become an HP product. Instead, HP will put the parts of Humane that it is acquiring into its A

The demise of Humane is perhaps the most predictable tech story of 2025. The company tried to build some buzz around its AI Pin in late 2023, marketing the device as a tiny replacement for smartphones and playing up the fact that Humane’s co-founders were former Apple employees. The problem was that it wasn’t really clear what the AI Pin would do to justify its $700 asking price (plus a $24/month subscription). It didn’t take long for things to spiral out of control. The AI Pin was released in
