Now if reports are to be believed, HP is pretty interested in buying this Humane AI Pin business, according to The New York Times. The company is said to be sold for over $1 billion.

According to the company, those giving negative reviews lacked optimism and it even issued warnings to customers about the charging case posing a fire safety risk.
