Humane's AI Pin is dead | TechCrunch
Briefly

Humane Technologies has announced its acquisition by HP, prompting immediate cessation of its AI Pin sales and support. Customers who purchased the AI Pin will see their devices rendered non-functional by February 28, 2025, as they will no longer connect to company servers. Originally launched as a smartphone alternative, the AI Pin encountered significant issues with customer satisfaction and sales, with returns surpassing new purchases. The company, founded by ex-Apple employees, had raised over $230 million before facing these challenges.
Humane announced on Tuesday that it has been acquired by HP, leading to the immediate discontinuation of sales of its AI Pins, which will cease functioning soon.
The AI Pins, once envisioned as smartphones replacements, will stop being functional after February 28, 2025, leaving customers without crucial services and functionality.
