The artifact will gain haste whether or not it’s a creature. Of course, if it’s not a creature, haste will have no particular effect.

2008-10-01wotc

You tap the artifact when you lose control of it for any reason — because Magus of the Unseen’s effect ends, or because a spell or ability causes another player to gain control of it.

You may target an untapped artifact with this ability.
