Introducing the Future of AI: Humane’s Wearable AI Pin!
Humane, a company founded by former Apple employees, has launched Ai Pin, a wearable device that could be an alternative to a smartphone. This little gadget attaches to your clothes so you can make calls, send messages, translate languages and browse the web.

Priced at $699, the company said the Ai Pin will be available for pre-order in the US starting November 16. The company told Wired that deliveries of the device will begin in early 2024.
According to Reuters, “Humane is one of several Silicon Valley companies racing to develop the next generation of consumer electronics. But Humane has distanced itself from the mixed-reality headset developed by companies like Apple and Meta, whose founder and president Imran Chaudhri said earlier this year: ‘The future is not in your face.’
What is the Humane AI Pin and how does it work?
The Ai Pin can be used in two parts: a square device and a battery pack that magnetically attaches to your clothes or other surfaces. On top of that price, there’s also a $24 monthly fee for a Humane subscription, which gives you a phone number and data coverage over T-Mobile’s network.
Ai Pin uses a combination of voice controls, touch controls and a camera to recognize the user’s intentions. It also has a small projector that can display information about the user’s hand. Ai Pin is powered by the technologies of OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, and Microsoft’s cloud computing power.
Humane said Ai Pin is designed to be more convenient and less intrusive than smartphones. Ai Pin is always on and ready to use, so you don’t have to bark to get your phone out when you need it.
According to Reuters, Humane offers a device that does not have a traditional screen and relies almost entirely on artificial intelligence to interact with the user.
The pin also includes a camera that can take pictures or use computer vision to scan objects such as food and give the user an estimate of its nutritional content.
