Pricey AI Pins are being returned quicker than they are sold: ‘It just doesn’t work’

Pin this bulky, expensive piece of wearable technology as a questionable product.

More of Humane’s AI Pin were returned than purchased between May and August, The Verge reported . The pin retails between $700 and $800 — plus a $24 monthly subscription for $288 annually.

In total, the company has reportedly seen $1 million in returns — and thousands of its units were canceled even before they were shipped, according to the report.

And overall sales aren’t going as planned. The company shipped only 10,000 units — when it hoped to sell 10 times that, or around 100,000, according to the New York Times .

Of those 10,000, 30% were reportedly returned.

The situation — $1 million in returns against $9 million in sales — is notably grim since the company had raised $200 million from Silicon Valley execs, the report noted.

Months ago upon release, the device, meant to be a camera-guided virtual assistant, had been panned heavily by reviewers .

The Wall Street Journal’s Joanna Stern described the huge lapel accessories as “Your grandma’s heavy brooch designed by Iron Man’s stylist.”

“What did I do to deserve this? The error messages. The delayed response times. The always-dead batteries,” she continued. “My 2-year-old heard the Humane Pin say ‘Input passcode’ so many times he started running around the house yelling it.”

In its own review, The Verge stated point-blank in a headline : “There’s only one problem: it just doesn’t work.”

“We knew we were at the starting line, not the finish line” when the AI Pin launched, spokesperson Zoz Cuccias told the outlet, adding that software updates were made to “address user feedback.”

Regarding the report about sales, Cuccias said, “We do not comment on financial data, and will refer it to our legal counsel.”

The company’s leadership, reported to be in flux by The Verge, also appears to have missed early warning signs reported by product testers.

Users called it both “disorienting” and “frustrating” and griped that it worked nothing like seen in a corporate demonstration video.

Feedback like that “ripped through the company like a bullet,” per the outlet.
