The Humane Ai Pin Will Become E-Waste Next Week
-
Did they really sold any? I'd think they all went to tech reviewers and influencers
-
You made a dollar this last year?
-
Rounded to the closest million that actually checks out…
-
A dollar, a hundred thousand dollars, these are just rounding errors compared to $250 million.
-
I think anyone paying for this must have been mentally challenged.
-
I love that this meme can be fully depicted using emojis. I demand emoji versions of other common memes.
-
They probably lost a ton of money developing it. I bet nobody got overly rich with this endeavor.

I guess the buyer qualifies for a refund, I wonder if they would even want the device back

I'm curious what's the financial outcome here for the customers? I don't remember what Humane's price model for these pins was, and none of these articles are discussing it. For example... Eh I'll just look it up.
Oh my god it was $500-$700 up front plus a $25 monthly fee. That's just horrible; will the customers be getting refunds? [Looks it up] Nope.

It reminds me a bit of Garmin acquiring Pebble and discontinuing support. This does sound significantly worse though

I sometimes think of "who bought these?" I mean, I'm a little bit of a data hoarder. I never want to lose those Google chats and emails I'll never look back on. I downloaded my Twitter data (that I'll never reference) before deleting my account. But what nerd mother fucker like me, has the money to pay hundreds of dollars on this, and a subscription fee, for a service to take data I'll never own?
If I had that kind of money to waste, I'd just use that extra monthly subscription money to buy media to fill up servers (that I bought with the cost of the Pin,) on my home network.
And I don't even have a home network or a house, but bet your ass I'd have those and a million other things before this became a remotely attractive option.
This is like Quibi. You see it and you can easily understand it on one, far-off, level... But here in reality I'm just left confused. "What were they thinking?"
