After months of hype and speculation, the self-proclaimed "smartphone killer" is here。Humane, a startup founded by two former Apple employees, has unveiled the much-anticipated AI pin, a small device the size of a cookie that fits on the front of a shirt and, according to its creators, aims to revolutionize our relationship with computing.。While the startup finally revealed some details of its long-awaited product on Thursday, there's no telling whether it will actually force you to throw your smartphone in the trash or whether it will become the functional product you want.。Purchase。

The idea behind the AI pin is to lead us into a post-smartphone future, according to its creators。Humane's founders, Imran Chaudhri and Bethan y Bongiorno, say they want to help users reconnect with the real world while continuing to push the way computing improves people's lives.。To do this, they have created a product that has all the features of a smartphone, but as Chaudhry said at a previous press conference, it wants to "fit seamlessly into the context of your life."。The startup is touting it as a healthier alternative to our current situation - scenes of hell filled with screens, people walking the earth like zombies, and faces with white matter removed constantly glow under the soft hypnotic lights of iPhones.。

Humane's device doesn't have a screen and instead uses a tiny laser projector to superimpose information onto the palm of your hand。It is designed as a virtual assistant, communication equipment and artificial intelligence driven Swiss army knife, integrating service and function。

So will this weird gadget actually help us into the post-phone era?？Honestly, it's not very clear。On Thursday, Chaudhri and Bongiorno finally revealed more details about their product in a video, and while the AI pins do look promising, there's also a lot that could go wrong.。In any case, the pin will start ordering as soon as next week and will definitely become a product worthy of attention。
