`It’s like any new technology, both magical and clumsy. It took me a bit of time to get used to the commands, but it’s a device worth trying,` tech reporter Erin Griffith

According to Griffith, the initial AI Pin experience feels like using a virtual assistant like Alexa, Google Assistant or Siri.

Some features on AI Battery.

As one of the first people to experience AI Pin, The Verge reporter Jay Peters said that the device is not practical.

Also according to Peters, Humane seems to consider AI Pin as the beginning of a larger project that Humane, the company behind AI Pin, has set out.

Another issue concerns privacy.

According to Medium, people actually still prefer a device with a screen.

`People still like their current phones. They like a device with a screen. They like to have a smartphone with a camera so they can take decent photos, not a device with a forward-facing camera.`

Even after months of wearing AI Battery all day, Humane founders Imran Chaudhri and Bethany Bongiorno still can’t completely separate themselves from their phone screens.
