This is the best summary I could come up with:


Before it has even been announced, the AI Pin is one of Time Magazine’s “Best Inventions of 2023,” along with everything from the Framework Laptop 16 to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 to the Bedtime Buddy alarm clock.

It appears the AI Pin will attach magnetically to your clothing, and uses “a mix of proprietary software and OpenAI’s GPT-4” to power its many features.

Humane has been hyping the AI Pin for months, all the way back to a TED talk in April in which co-founder Imran Chaudhri showed some demos that left us with more questions than answers.

Since then we’ve seen the Pin at Paris Fashion Week, and Humane was supposed to share more information on October 14th but has since pushed its official announcement to November 9th.

Chaudhri is one of a number of former Apple employees at the company, and Humane has certainly played up that connection in positioning the Pin as the next big thing.

Rewind announced the Rewind Pendant, which offers a lot of the same “keep you on top of your day” capabilities the Pin promises; Sam Altman and Jony Ive are reportedly working together on AI-centric hardware; smart glasses with AI assistants are suddenly a booming category thanks to Meta, Amazon, and others.
