The Humane Ai Pin, a screenless AI wearable designed to replace smartphones, has been unveiled by Humane, a company founded by ex-Apple employees. The device projects visuals onto the user's palm using a laser ink display and offers gesture-based controls. It relies on voice commands for communication and uses OpenAI's model for search and task-handling. The Ai Pin can provide real-time translation and nutrition information, although accuracy may vary. Unlike other voice assistants, it does not passively listen and only activates when manually activated by the user. The device prioritizes privacy with a prominent Trust Light and a personic speaker that creates a private sound bubble. The Ai Pin is priced at $699, with orders starting on November 16 and shipping in early 2024.
