Cryptocurrency project Worldcoin, led by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, has unveiled its latest innovation, the World ID, which promises to revolutionize secure digital identification.
To obtain this unique account, individuals must undergo an in-person iris scan using Worldcoin’s specialized ‘orb’, ensuring only real humans can access this cutting-edge digital system.
Stored securely on cryptocurrency blockchains, the World ID preserves user privacy and eliminates the control of a single entity.
With its rapid expansion, ‘orbing’ operations will soon be available in 35 cities across 20 countries.
Worldcoin’s World ID system has garnered significant interest, positioning itself as a vital tool in differentiating between real individuals and AI bots, especially in the age of advanced AI chatbots.
With the potential to enhance universal basic income programs and combat income inequality, the World ID opens up new possibilities in the world of secure digital identification.
