If you are one of those who are eagerly waiting for Humane AI Pin Pro, we have bad news. The company has announced that you should stop using the charging case immediately as it poses a fire risk. In an email to its users, Humane announced that the battery cells in the AI Pin Pro’s charging case pose a fire risk.

These batteries were sourced from a third-party vendor that is no longer used by Humane. Fortunately, other components such as the device itself, the battery booster and the charging pad were not at risk. To compensate for the inconvenience caused by this issue, the company is offering a free two-month subscription. However, it did not provide any information on whether they will provide new charging cases.

This incident has made an already difficult year for Humane even more difficult. AI Pin was launched in April with high hopes but was met with negative reviews. Last month, it emerged that the company was looking for a buyer at a valuation between $750 million and $1 billion.

However, it has not yet been acquired by a major company. Moreover, the launch of OpenAI’s GPT-4o has made it more difficult for companies like Humane and Rabbit, which produce similar AI devices. Humane only announced this critical information via email and has not yet shared it on its official website or social media accounts.

But on the Humane Discord server, many AI Pin users are discussing this situation and wondering if they should send back their charging cases. If you are an AI Pin Pro owner, you need to stop using the charging case immediately. You can take advantage of the free subscription offered by the company, but there is no word yet on when your requests for new charging cases will be fulfilled.

The fire risk in Humane AI Pin Pro’s charging case further complicates the company’s difficult period. How Humane will solve this problem and regain the trust of its users is a matter of great curiosity.
