I never got what made these pins humane are they trained on data that they got permission for? Or did they use an ai model that does not use much energy thus not destroying the environment?
Seems a bit misleading at least with apple it is obvious that it is not a fruit but calling a company Humane you expect it to be more ethical.
Apparently this wasn't always that obvious.

Even if they used such a model, and they didn't, I'm sure plenty of it would be manufactured with conflict minerals in factories with horrendous labor practices.
There is no such thing as humane electronics. That's an unfortunate fact.
