I love having to jump through hoops and intentionally frustrating myself to do something I can do in 5 seconds with my phone
And paying an absolutely ridiculous amount of money both upfront and monthly just for the privilege to do so.
& twitter idiots had the audacity to say his review was immoral lol
things i would do with it is: so u can track u friends/love one with it ex: saying the phone number and it track locations how far the other person is , also , add scan tool to it so u can scan your body fat % and more, also send message ex: instead of calling people u speak to it like leave talk message instead of u need to call someone like to your love one i will be home in 20min and it say it out loud you have one new message from your love one, and so.. just few exp i would do with it
All for just 6/700 bucks 😂
It may work for a blind person, but that's about it.
This is torture. It should be called Inhumane.
Or the "Brutalizer" :D
I agree it's bad, but I think it can get a lot better. Still don't think it's something I'd use regardless of how good it gets.
The real issue is the price
Nah, the issues is that theres no reason for it to exist since phones do everything that it does, but better. @kcchiefsproductions8687
@@nickkowal619 - With its simple one button operation, it may be useful for pre-teens before their first smartphone, the technically/visually/mentally challenged, or the non-techie elderly. But that price has to some down to around a hundred bucks to have a chance. imo
humaine ai really overestimated how many ppl would be comfortable with mostly voice commands and voice confirmations in public
Saying hey Google while earbuds can be embarrassing but I still do it. The average person won't know this ever existed.
To me it's not even that, the product is just bad. It does nothing a piece of tech we already carry 24 7 does better.
The bleeping of people's names makes it sound like it's swearing haha
No it doesn't, just sounds like they are hiding the names as they should...
@@AndrewPL5 not a good day huh?
@@elix_ I'm having a great day, thank you for asking!!
@@AndrewPL5cap
@@elix_ the fact that his name is Andrew too 💀
Stop! Stop! He's Already Dead!
Basic summary of the product: The most elegant, well-built piece of sh- [paperweight] you can buy.
You could simply attach an Android or Apple smartwatch to your shirt (dumb to begin with), and would do the same through Google Assistant or Siri. lol
"Text David, I'll be there in 10 minutes". 6 minutes later still not managed to find the right David. 9 minutes later message fails to send. 10 minutes later say, "Hi David, I'm here.".
The Juicero of 2024
This whole AI pin features should be on smart watch instead
it basically already is
A battery and device that gets hot and sitting right near your heart. Ah, what could possibly go wrong, Humane? It's not a humane device at all, nor is it meant for ordinary humans!
Oh holy shit, that's actually bad. Eventually some of those batteries will explode and to remove it from your person you need to either reach with your hands towards the currently in the process of combusting device or remove whatever piece of clothing its attached to - which is usually a process which takes several seconds. I'm not even sure I'd wanna do that, since I'd be moving that currently combusting device towards my face when removing a shirt.
I suppose it's not as bad as removing a phone exploding in your pocket from your person (presumably), but way worse than just dropping a phone.
It's probably also way more painful to have your nipples singed. My god, the thought of even putting on t-shirts like a month after such an accident is hurtful.
@@Alice_FumoHonestly this isn't too big of an issue so long as there isn't a surprise packaging flaw like the Note 7, modern lithium batteries in most cases need to be pretty badly abused to do anything exciting. A strong magnet specifically intended to be stuck on the shirt right where most implantable defibrillators live is a different story though
i guess time will tell@@bosstowndynamics5488
Wifi and bluetooth next to your heart too? Your red blood cells would like a word...
Yea i mean we already have hot phones in our pockets at all times. I dont think this is anymore dangerous
It’s easy to imagine that all of the pin’s functionality could be replicated at a higher level with a future version of AirPods.
This is the dumbest product of 2024
So far. The tech/crypto AI bros are cooking.
No really...it's just super unfinished....tho no one shud actually buy it....if it did all it does perfectly...it wouldn't be dumb....
@@lemont64 Agree, it could really replace phone or some kind of AI assistant that everyone use in the future. But more polish and development is needed.
IMHO the Rabbit R1 is worse at least conceptually, I personally expect that if it releases this year it will easily outpace the Pin in terms of stupidity. For all its flaws at least the Pin is trying to explore a new form factor, instead of being a worse phone that's still about the size and shape of a phone that's not good enough to replace your phone.
To quote the Angry Video Game Nerd, "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!"
Thanks for honest reviews
Wait so it just reads out any message without confirmation when you ask if you have messages? Oh the fun one could have pranking people with this
Imagine leaving Apple, a very high status/ high paying job. To make actual e-wasste!😂😂😂
It feels like these are all a bunch of people fired from Apple for incompetence
Rather get a smart watch with cellular and actually does more than the pin.
"The company will succeed if they manage to make one that communicates with all the info on the phone. I hope it doesn't go bankrupt since the idea is great, very Star Trek."
Google and/or apple will do that if this gets at all popular. Since they already know everything it.
Someone will probably buy them out. It would be better as a smart watch
I don't want Google to learn everything about me to become my assistant.
Why not just wear this thing on your wrist and have a small display where you can see the most important information at a glance? Oh wait, then it would be a smartwatch.
Bingo!!
Nailed it!...
Version four of this thing will be pretty awesome, I bet.
Vetter things will come and this money scan will dissapear
Even if it worked flawlessly the added steps don't seem worth it. And even if it worked flawlessly $700 + monthly $ is absurd
Watches will just be better.
I doubt there will be a second version. It’s just one big flop.
Doubt it will get to version 4
The design is very human(e)
It’s a “Star Trek” Communicator that needs a lot of work
Do we anticipate Assistant with Gemini to gain most of these capabilities on phones/smartwatches in a more coherent fashion?
Yup
There are **rumors** that Apple will license Gemini in their upcoming version of iOS. So it might be on both platforms soon enough.
I see no reason it won't, this pin is really just a basic transcription engine plugged into a ChatGPT equivalent with a TTS engine on the other end after all
The laser projector tech has been around for 8 plus years now. I still have the Sony MP-CL1A pocket 720p laser projector and the laser mechanism itself is tiny, 90% of the device size is battery.
All in all, we have creators that blindly believe in the usefulness and features of their product that just simply don't work.
The biggest problem is that they position their product as a smartphone replacement, an opportunity to do away with the smartphone. But it is trivially impossible at this point in the development of the internet. You need a display and that's a fact. Buying through AI Pin you can't compare product prices, read product reviews, read store information and compare similar products and this is just one example.
The internet and our interaction with it literally needs to change in order to use and implement this device.
AI Pin will not be able to change the internet.
As a dry residue we have a device that is the size of an Apple Watch, which is less powerful, has fewer features, is inconvenient to use, which runs out of battery faster and most importantly costs 700$(+25$).
This could be a smart watch
I’m still confused as to why this company and product has got such a crazy amount of coverage?
They have huge investors
It's AI! AI is great! AI!
/s on my end, but seriously that's about it, it's all part of the LLM hype train. That, and investors, as joggle said (the Wikipedia article for the company is particularly enlightening, calling out Time for declaring it to be a top 200 invention of 2023 despite not having been released and with Time's chair people both being investors in the company)
Former Apple engineere
I wrote a letter and posted it quicker than you sent a message
Why do I have a feeling that when Rabbit R1 comes out it will have the same disappointment as the Humane AI?
No Marques, you are not a regular person.
The sensorship for Andrew's and Davie's last name is very funny out of context
Siri can already do all these things on your phone lol idk what in the world they were thinking?
The most disturbing feature is actually that everyone around you must hush so that the assistant captures your voice. That counts for every assistant though.
What if every Humane Pin was linked to a real person in a room, With a microphone and a laptop with google and chat gpt.
He really had confidence that the translation was right 😂😂😂😂
The crazy thing is that the AI pin wasn’t created by elon musk to “change the world” as we live in mars in a simulation
I think this will be great for people with disabilities. Down the road ai can see it being smaller and more defined to be a more rounded device to replace the physical phone. It’s a great idea.
"does it?" 😂😂
If I have to look at a display why wouldn’t I look at an oled and rather go for a monochrome projector
I like the way that you easily prove that they are shit using a so basic daily use. Not an edge case, but a common use
I'll continue using my smartphone.
To make this device accessible needs to be a paired device to your phone and work with phone account/data. This could be handy as a translation device like a start trek communicator. That’s really what I see this device as being. They are going about it in the wrong way. It needs vibration and to speed up its calculations and responses to even start being a cool niche device that has potential to become something used in conjunction or on its own. An Apple Watch can compute a lot a faster, it can use cellular, wifi as well. This pin should have started with Apple Watch capabilities as a minimum before even attempting to release a product. watch apple take this idea and use their tech to make it something good.
i didnt think about the separate phone number issue. that's a HUGE miss on their part.
My watch does all this and more
Funny they missed the exlipse given their demo video the clip had the wrong date as well 🤣
If you really want to reduce your screen time, get a feature phone. It'll save you around $600 and you can still make calls in private
What happens when you put form over function. We should probably remember that the iPhone was barely functional at launch and lots of people held off until it became functional. Of course, much has changed in tech in the meantime, and we do now expect far more functionality, even in novel form factors.
So they finally made the Star Trek pin from the show
Oh no Marques did the hands on face thumbnail. I have lost faith in humanity now!
What I might have missed. What does it 'learn' about you, and how? How is the data saved, does it happen locally, what are it's sources, what will it get better at by using which date, etc?
No one seems to have really covered this. All they want to talk about is how cool, and not useful, the projector is, and how nice the metal is.
I think the reason most people aren't talking about this is because all of the advanced functions phones provide related to personalisation already involve sending all your personal data to the cloud, so it's just kind of assumed here, particularly since there's no LLM even remotely this capable that can run on such a low power device
I think it's safe to assume most stuff aren't working locally. So you'd better trust them with privacy
@@Problemsolver434 Sure, but this is a product reviewed to death in the last couple of days. Why assume? Let's pose the question and answer it...
@@charliehelmijr Don't get me wrong, it is a fair question. But the computing of this thing was mentioned as one of the critiques if only you paid attention. It is slow because it has to connect to the Internet to work. It requires subscription because the model is not running locally. However since it doesn't connect to the phone, it knows little about you. This was a criticism made by mrwhosethe boss. The question is answered in the reviews. Just not directly. The answer is there. Just that other thing stand out in the reviews
And me saying "trust them" came out wrong. I am saying you better trust them before giving them that information
@@Problemsolver434 Sure, but that sounds more like what it is not: not local. How is the data stored, which MLLM, tech partners, etc. All I want is for the product to actually get reviewed, in a... review. Instead of reviewers parroting each other about how warm it gets and the short battery life. Especially a product like this, where the software is at least half of the story, if not more.
For instance, Humane's model is based on, uses or works with OpenAI. Why is that not even mentioned.
Even the 'you better trust them' statement. I mean, I guess. The percentage of people watching this video that owns this device or will own it in the next year or two, single digits, maybe below 1%. So in general, we don't really have to trust this company (yet). But we're here because we want to learn about how the product works.
But maybe more in depth reviews are coming.
I dont see any AI in this pin. Ehat he did making a call, could have been done with Google assisstant or Siri for like 10 years now
The whole foods thing is a scanner that scans your palm in a similar way to the optical fingerprint readers in phones. No chips necessary!
I would never do it though
Ahhh..the frustration! for me is like battle with Siri again, but this time with a specific physical device 😞
Marques FTW!!!
9:10 flex David Blaine
we are flatlining yet ai is just getting better :)
Would love to talk to you Marques I’m in NJ too. Spoke with Imran with a few meetings and gave many of these suggestions. I’d love to share with you what happened.
So many of the examples can already be done with the seriously "old" Apple Siri. Like "what time is it"? When Apple updates Siri, and integrates Ai, this product will be impacted badly. As all I need to do is update my software.
“The design is very *humane*”
I feel like the only thing that’s going to recreate the first iPhone moment is a neural interface controlled by your mind.
One thing I noticed in all these reviews is Apple Watch lte does the same exact thing but better. First it was a companion to iPhone and then became standalone…
Makes me glad I ordered a Rabbit :)
This companies not gonna last, plain & simple
It’s funny cause if that used Siri and it costed $100 without a subscription it would sell like hot cakes
I wonder how innovative this product would’ve been if it DID pair to a phone… Considering how useful smartwatches are, I think something like this could be similarly useful.
Feels like a huge strategic miscalculation
If it connected to your phone like a smart watch, it would be an accessory; then they couldn’t use the “AI” buzzword to get money from Investors.
This pin might be more helpful to someone with an impairment. I see it more as assistive technology...
Its a product that make sense for blind people, that's it.
Does it have to be worn on a specific side? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
They talked a lot how it was former apple apple peoplw but the pin itself actually reminds me of the Samsung galay s series, specially the bezels
Bro you regular people... How??
i think it’s funny to think now about the com badge from star trek, and now realizing that it’s actually not a great idea…
Personally, the worst thing in my opinion is the $24 a month subscription, which if you stop paying it, it's basically bricked
It's like what came first the chicken or the egg
The smart phone came first then this thing took four giant steps backwards
"...suscríbete al pad cost"
11:37
the rabbit r1 is next lol
At least the Rabbit R1 is a little more reasonable haha
@@tycooperaow wait til it flops
Some people were like "I'm tired of screens. We should have a way to interact with technology and knowledge without having to pay full attention to a screen." And humane AI were like "we're on it!". And they did it. They created something that does that. But it sucks. Not the device itself (although that sucks as well), but the whole concept. It's not viable. You can lose some things you'd have on a phone, but you can't lose too much. You need to stop when the device becomes so cumbersome it sucks. They just kept on going.
I love how Andrew is trying to remain positive and look at the things it tries to do well, and kinda fails?
lol @ the multiple *bleeps*
I think it's pretty clear that the pin is an impressive tech demo, but pretending that this is a usable product in its current state is... bold, to say the least.
My big issue with this is that you could just use buds/airpods and get the same thing but miles better.
i like where they are going with it but i feel like there were some kinks that needed to be solved before they pushed it out
7:03 clearly Andrew schulz, should have sent him the message 😅
It's like Siri, but not as good! I don't want anything knowing everything!
Sometimes the scam is in the marketing. If they marketed this a fun gadget for grown men who buy really expensive toys, they'd be fine. It looks great. It gives late 00s Jony Ive design. But they're advertising a level of utility that was never gonna happen lol
its funny when it bleebs Andrews surnames it sometimes feels like surname is Sh*t or other fun stuff like thisss
Surely Siri does this already through most Apple devices? Including Airpods?
Theoretically it does fancier things because it's driven by an LLM instead of a basic voice assistant like Siri, but in practice that advantage is going to disappear very quickly when Gemini gets integrated into voice assistants
Never mind the fact that you have to pay them $24 a month to use their product.
OH NO HES GOING TO DESTROY THE COMPANY STOP NOW SAY ITS THE BEST PRODUCT EVER
Why can't we jus add a sim card or esim to the AI pin
You'll probably be there, before the pin send the message. :D
This thing is not ready for the public.
It's an unbaked concept, unless the AI is on the pin, which it isn't, it's latency will always be frustratingly long.
But, it could be the next new thing which is why they need to try it now.
That's not true. It's not like it requires gigabytes of data. The AI is just slow.
Let’s talk about the fact that the Apple Watch all you have to do is raise your wrist and say Siri send a text message to John Smith, or call John Smith, and all you have to do is raise your wrist and you can see the message you get a vibration and it checks your vitalsyou can make phone calls on it. The only downside is the battery life, which is why I’m switching to Garmin.
Wouldn’t the notification light be easier to see if it was in the other side of your chest?
11:30 I'm trying to decide how much to read into the fact that hardware developed by a (/googles) mostly American(?) team defaulted to Castillian Spanish instead of Latin American Spanish when translating.
Just One of Those Things, I guess.
Using that pin is not humane, it’s torture. 😳🤦🏽♂️
I've said it before and I'll say it again: I want a pair of augmented reality glasses. Something that tells me who the person is that just came up to me and I forgot their name. Things like that. This has the right idea, but is in the wrong form. It needs to be glasses. And be connected to your phone, obviously. And do more!
I heard the Federation is suing them for infringing on their patent.🖖🏿🤣
damage control...
