Humane will disable AI pins after $116 million buyout, leaving early adopters high and dry


Effective immediately, new purchases of the consumer AI Pin will be discontinued.

Following that, “all customer data, including personally identifiable information will be permanently deleted from Humane’s servers.” The company added that it has stopped selling AI pins and canceled orders that have not been fulfilled. This will unlock new levels of functionality for our customers and deliver on the promises of AI," said Tuan Tran, president of technology and innovation at HP. Android Central's Andrew Myrick saw it coming quite early, predicting that "it could end up being a bigger flop than Windows Phone or LG's smartphone business."
