Humane recalled the Charge Case accessory for its AI Pin via the CPSC due to a lithium-battery fire hazard, issuing $149 refunds to standalone purchasers. The broader AI Pin product itself was later bricked when Humane shut down all services in February 2025 after its acquisition by HP.
What this means for youIf you own a Humane AI Pin Charge Case, check whether it is covered by the recall and stop charging with it. The fire risk comes from the battery, not from the AI.
