# Ai Pin? What Ai Pin? Last night, YouTube recommended [a new video](https://youtube.com/watch?v=fsnysAHD2CU) from Humane for me to watch. You know I had to tap on it. <div class=iframe-container> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/fsnysAHD2CU?si=6ohO2R3Tr8rzIsfv" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div> The first thing I notice was our host isn't wearing an [[Humane Tries to Tell Us What Ai Pin is Again|Ai Pin]]. With the whole video being about putting Humane's operating system on other devices, the *really* wants you to forget the [flop](https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/06/technology/humane-ai-pin.html). The second thing is really what should have grabbed my attention first. Everything is blurred. The car's logo was first and I thought that made a little sense. Then the smart speaker is looks like a Minecraft toy. I am surprised the TV wasn't just blurred out. I suppose they want you to imagine your own smart products in their objects blocky stead. Instead, it comes off as half-baked childlike: like a "cake" from an EasyBake oven. It sorta looks like a cake. The problem is, CosmOS will never replace iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, or Linux. This will all just be baked into the products and operating systems those companies already offer. Just like taking pictures of your surroundings and having an LLM tell you what it sees is now a phone feature, not some wearable pin. Car manufacturers are trying to get other operating systems [out of their cars](https://www.theverge.com/24285581/gm-software-baris-cetinok-apple-carplay-android-auto-google-cars-evs-decoder-podcast). TVs want to show you [ads](https://www.theverge.com/2024/12/3/24312508/walmart-vizio-acquisition-complete), not helpful information. *New* operating systems are [not the way](https://www.theverge.com/2022/2/25/22950710/meta-vr-ar-os-team-xros-breakup-hyper-tuned-focus) right now, maybe ever? They are built off existing systems for the new platforms, which are being made by the same teams. Never buy a product on the promise of software. Humane takes it one step further, offering not their own product and a software platform that does not exist. Humane is [[Bring On Insufferable Gruber|selling itself]] and an idea. The [last time](https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/7/24211339/humane-ai-pin-more-daily-returns-than-sales) they did that, it didn't work out so well.
