The Controversy Surrounding Humane AI Pin: A YouTuber's Impact
Tech reviewers, including popular YouTuber MKBHD, have criticized Humane AI's Ai Pin for its subpar performance, sparking a debate about the influence of tech influencers on company success. While some argue that MKBHD's critique could harm nascent projects, others point out that Humane AI had significant funding and should be held to a higher standard. Similar controversy arose when MKBHD negatively reviewed the Fisker Ocean car, leading to layoffs and production halts, though the company was already facing financial and safety issues. Some Black techies see the critique of MKBHD as a form of tone policing and bias against Black voices in tech criticism.
