Humane reveals first international market for the Ai Pin, partnering with South Korea’s SK Telecom

Hyped hardware startup Humane has announced plans for its first international market, inking a deal with South Korean carrier SK Telecom. The announcement comes shortly after the San Francisco-based company revealed it was pushing back the shipping date of its Ai Pin device from March to mid-April in its domestic U.S. market. Founded in 2017 by former Apple executives Bethany Bongiorno and Imran Chaudhri, Humane had raised north of $200 million from backers including Microsoft, Qualcomm Ventures and OpenAI’s Sam Altman before anyone in the outside world knew what it was building.

Bill Gates And Humane’s AI Pin: AI Is The Interface

Last week Humane unveiled an AI Pin you wear on your chest and summon when needed. At $700, the reaction to a screenless device with no apps and a $24/month subscription has been negative, even derogatory, and many pundits have predicted its failure. And yes, there’s a good chance it will flop, but that doesn’t mean we can’t learn from it. Especially in the context of some insightful words Bill Gates recently shared.
The Verge 10/27/2023

Humane’s Ai Pin could cost $1,000 — and require a subscription

The Ai Pin, the new gadget / wearable device / projector / thing from the secretive startup Humane, might cost as much as $1,000 and may require a monthly subscription for data, according to The Information. The mysterious device has been in development for years, but we got our first good look at it during co-founder Imran Chaudhri’s presentation at TED this year.

Watch the first demo of buzzy startup Humane’s wearable AI assistant in leaked clips

Humane, the startup founded by ex-Apple employees Imran Chaudhri and Bethany Bongiorno, has given a first live demo of its new device: a wearable gadget with a projected display and AI-powered features intended to act as a personal assistant. Chaudhri, who serves as Humane’s chairman and president, demoed the device onstage during a TED Talk, a recording of which has been acquired by Inverse and others ahead of its expected public release on April 22nd.
