Created by a former Apple employee, Humane AI Pin, which aims to revolutionize the world, appears to have crashed almost before takeoff. Popular youtuber technological Marques Brownlee described it this way: “Worst product I have ever reviewed”A device that is not inferior to the iPhone, but also worse than the Apple Watch.

Why won’t Humane AI Pin succeed?

Humane AI Pin is a kind of assistant that you can constantly ask something, but other than that there’s little else, just the ability to call or send messages. Therefore, it is a device quite limited functionsArtificial intelligence is always there to answer you when you need it, but all operations are carried out on the company’s servers hundreds of kilometers away.

According to Marques Brownlee’s experience, AI Pin It takes almost 1 minute to reply to you. So the execution of its main function is very slow. Moreover, there is no application Of course, there are no social networks for the device to order a car to take you to the airport or to purchase a product.

But the bad things don’t end there. According to the creator’s AI Pin analysis, The battery of the device is very limited. Almost a few hours It lasts a long time without having to replace it with another device that is already charged. This means that it is not a device that will be used constantly.

The device also has a user interface that seems quite strange to the general public. It has no screen, so the interface is based on a projector in your own hand. with gesture controls. Something that is not very easy to use for those who are used to touch screens.

The main problem Humane faces is this: They are trying to completely change the user experience. This means you have to persuade users to learn a new interface and a new control system, leaving behind all the comforts and benefits of the technology they are already accustomed to and using on their smartphones. And this is not a simple thing.

HE The iPhone did this at the time by convincing users that touchscreens were better than buttons. But the change wasn’t that drastic, after all, we were still using our hands and the improvements were worth it. We can do so much more on a bigger screen.

AI Pin has a new interface that takes some getting used to, and it doesn’t even offer anything better than what we already have. With We also have access to a lot of artificial intelligence on an iPhone, an Apple Watch or any Android deviceLike ChatGPT, which will provide us with answers similar to AI Pin’s. Equal Apple could turn Apple Watch into an AI assistant similar to Humane AI Pinbeing able to do many other things as well.

Finally, we must take into account the high price of the device, the Humane AI Pin is sold at: $699But we’ll also have to pay monthly fee is 24 dollars for a subscription. At this point everything seems to indicate that Humane’s AI Pin will fail.
