chat gpt " Yes, the World project shares similarities with platforms like WeChat in its aim to integrate multiple services-digital identity, financial tools, and communication-into one ecosystem. However, there are key differences: Decentralization: Unlike WeChat, which is a centralized app run by Tencent and controlled by a single entity, World is designed to operate on decentralized blockchain technology. The World Chain (an Ethereum Layer-2 network) underpins the system, theoretically making it more secure, resilient, and less susceptible to control by governments or companies Privacy: World emphasizes privacy-preserving tools, like the World ID, which allow users to verify their identity without sharing personal information like names or email addresses. The focus is on biometric verification through their Orb device, and they claim to limit data collection, unlike centralized platforms that gather extensive personal data Global Inclusivity: World aims to create a globally accessible financial and identity system, which is especially relevant in regions without access to traditional banking or identification systems. This goal aligns more with blockchain’s ethos of decentralized access to financial services, compared to a closed, national ecosystem like WeChat However, some critics argue that while World aims to be decentralized, the reliance on biometric data and centralized control of Orbs raises concerns about the actual degree of decentralization and privacy "

@@imusiccollection No its not! 😅 look at history and you'll see how many failed attempts there are at making the mark. Or believe it if you want and live in fear. /shrug.
Probably true. The concept behind it is similar to credentialing in emails that never took off. People have lived with unsecure emails for decades because that fits the pattern of human use: thoughtlessness. It is easy to ignore the fact that we're going to keep on getting attacked by identity theft due to all these apps etc that can impersonate us perfectly. Actually in an open, trustless, distributed network like the web something like a secure protocol for identity is needed but I expect adoption can be really low because people assume that this is somehow an ID system that's got some sort of conspiracy behind it. Just look at the dumb comments. So yeah this will fail and what do we get instead? Government regulation, bank control, etc. Humans think this is dystopian when what they're gonna get is more dystopian...
This will work because they will make people beg for money first. Crisis, wars, etc. And you will run to an orb to be able to buy a milk formula for your child.
If they offer free money or UBI for people to be scanned, it will work. Just strange in the video they didn’t seem to mention about that… I thought they mentioned it a year or two ago that the purpose of this orb is to prove you’re human so you can collect money when AI takes over. They don’t want people to panic so maybe they are much more careful 🤔 There’s already several million people registered with it.

This is really similar to something Intel did back in the 90s. Processor serial number - Unique identifier for every processor on the Internet, very traceable. It would have helped fight cybercrime. This was overwhelmingly rejected based on privacy. This was a case study at Intel. It was removed from the silicon.

I hate how the orb shows people using their phones, I haven't owned a cellphone in 18 years and I also ask the important question of "what about the amish"?? "what about the people intentionally using dumbphones"?? This is terrible, losing your identity because you simply choose not to verify with this thing.
I Iike this, the bias of binary choice - it's either this or nothing - well, Apple and Google have been working on a new kind of cookie capable of detecting physical authentication through the used device, while bots and their sophisticated version "AI agents" will be fully virtual. Basically, this worldcoin thing is superfluous and unnecessary, and the fact that they went to straight up iris data collection is questionable, fingerprint scanners in most devices sold across the world are already enough.
You all have no idea that worldcoin is the US Govt CBDC currency. All your "money" in the bank will be traded by the bank for this coin. This will force you to verify just so that you can spend your own money
How do you update your human image if you have something life-changing happen to your face or body that changes how you look? How does the human ID get updated?
Yeah. Or like even if you are born without eyes or something. I guess you don't matter to the "network". This whole thing is super creepy, especially the guy talking about "it's like a templ".
People are gonna hate on this because privacy. But pretty soon they'll realise anyone can fake their identity down to the face, and voice and the ONLY way to verify a person is real is a unique on-chain signature. You might not like it but this is essential to future proof your identity from AI.
@@justtiredthings maybe but the idea of an ID protocol is good. If it can be used by people to credential themselves without having to rely on government credentials that's great. If it's actually secure and it can keep out bad actors from spoofing other people then it's actually really impressive. If it can't do that then it's going to be worse than useless. But the way these guys did it from the start with the orb was just weird. And the designer talking about the temple Vibe was really not helping their case.
@@joythought I'm an anarchist. I'd be happy to see more solutions for identity and reputation emerge that don't depend upon the state. But doing it programmatically with biometric data on the blockchain is the most moronic security regime I've ever head of. This dumb*** idea alighted on my stupid noggin back in the heady crypto days before I quickly realized it's completely unworkable. The fact that these reasonably intelligent tech chieftains are pretending to believe otherwise is extremely concerning
Hardware tokens are another solution. I have one from my bank as an example. If I want to transfer large amounts I need to find it and type in authentication keys it displays. Generated by hashing a code on my bank card chip. Been around for a decade.
Always know that when someone says 'privacy', 'decentralized' etc. doesn't mean it's true. it could be true. But it could also be a primer/programming to make you think it's true, while it's not.
I see all the comments and all I see is negativity but the question is why aren’t you building if you have something better for humanity.,we are one organism and we should collaborate with each other not the opposite that’s the only way to move forward
UBI is impossible. All it does is shift zero and replace it with whatever the amount of UBI is. The economy acts like a sponge to absorb the prices of goods and services, so whatever the amount of UBI is it will soon be equivalent to what was previously zero. It is a trick.

Reminds me of The Orb's 'A huge ever growing pulsating brain that rules from the centre of the ultraworld' which I like but this is more of "A Global Ever-Scanning Orb That Verifies from the Heart of Digital Identity"
This idea sucks ass but not for the reasons you think. They would argue that they're taking identification out of the hands of the government. But it's such a stupid, implausible solution that it's clear that they're just lying to people. Which is truly scary given what power Altman et al. are wielding. It puts the lie to all of their bull****ing about their concern for humanity. They know their tech is dangerous to *us*. They don't care, and they don't want us to know thny don't care. It's terrifying.
Im not sure what to make of this. It gives Kickstarter scam vibes, but I dont want to scream 1984 before I really get what this is for. And I dont. what is the point of the identification thingy. Why do I need it?
If someone makes an AI that is undistinguisable from a real human with a laptop - they can make billion AIs running in parallel, attacking websites, influencing public discussions, scamming, etc. Then it will be useful to be able to prove that you're human on some webs, without e.g. needing to send all your passport data.
@jachymfibir that doesn't mean their solution is a remotely good one. They're way too late, anyway. What you're talking about will be possible within a year
Since they mention to prove you’re human, to prevent AI or hackers from taking your identity in the future. I think AI will get smarter and they need more ways to protect humans as this technology improves. Also since it has value attached it could be a UBI or system for humans that can’t work anymore when AI takes all jobs. We need a way of getting paid or surviving. There’s already a few million people registered with this. I’m not, as I don’t see it super urgent and there might be better systems implemented but I might register only when people start to get paid for it. But idk , I’ll probably wait until they reach 100x more people first and see how it plays out in a year or two.
Altman wants to know everything about everyone. Then charge people to query an attribute about you. E.g. you get orb scanned, fill in a witnessed notarized questionnaire. Go to a liquor store, show your world ID. Store sends details of your visit to Altman, with question "is worldid(you)>21?", altman returns yes or no. Depending on answer you can or cannot buy.
And I, for one, welcome our new orb bearing overlords. I'd like to remind them as a trusted youtube commenter, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground crypto mines.
@@WeddingVideographerMelbourne it doesn’t matter what the public thinks. Once governments adopt it for passport verification (already begun), taxes, signing up for social security or whatever you will have no choice.
Passports and state ID are not about verifying age or that you’re a citizen of a specific country. They’re used to verify WHO you are. Providing credentials of someone that owns a house is not enough to sell their house. Their face needs to match their credentials to verify their identity.
I'm not even religious but it looks like they studied the revelations and said "lets make this happen. How do we do this?" Its really annoying to people stuck in the crossfire of this ancient parental argument, called religion... It doesn't NEED to happen but were following it almost as if we have no free will at all.. Like a "script- ure"... I guess... Humans ARE automotons...
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of boomer voices suddenly cried out in terror and were...well, actually it's gonna get pretty loud on the internet over the next few days. Should probably go touch some grass while I can.
So, someone will design the anti-orb: An AI model trained on hundreds of thousands of real Iris pics and prepares a new AI-generated Iris pic, then uses the orb to create a new worldcoin :-). I can imagine what would the first spoofs look like - someone would take a dick pic and convert it to an orb iris pic using an AI model, but it would still resemble a dick pic and the worldcoin project will fail to understand the joke and accept it as legit. Then they would try to make it more complicated, but the AI will always win as this is a very simple diffusion based model to implement.
That's probably a real concern. If they end up with 8 billion registered "humans" and it turns out that 1/2 of them are from ai-generated irises then that's going to cause problems for any programs that run based on the humaneness of all the registered participants. But if I want to use this system to prove that I'm human and that you are human on a Zoom call it may still have some value. Let's imagine it is 5 years from now and you and I are closing a business deal. But on this call a scammer is trying to redirect the payment and so "you" show up in my zoom call but you are actually an AI generated version of you which is trying to scam me and you're not really a human then you'll need a World ID. If the scammer can't get one then I'm going to be protected from the scam and if they can get the id then maybe in fact World is on the hook for the losses I incur for the scam that is being run on me. So in theory it doesn't necessarily negate the value of this human ID protocol.
That is such an unrealistic scenario... If you are a business and want to close a deal with a client, you would be using secure internal communication systems, with VPNs, encrypted networks and multi-factor authentication. The attacker would have to bypass all of that to get into a call with you. If that were the case this attacker has a lot of resources, so they can probably use AI generated fake eyes based on the original human to get the ID. If instead we're talking about grandma being called by the son, a grandma would have no idea how World ID works, and would not even ask the son for it, or understand how to check for it. Old people are inevitably easy to target due to lower cognitive abilities, and that's not going to change with a World ID.
Well, for many countries if you want to ban a human from playing your game or limit them to one single account you're asking for ID - which means that you now need to store and handle a very sensitive government ID. Frankly, iirc South Korea has a very good system for this. Relying on a static number that can never change (SSN) is very.. not good - especially when they get exposed every 3 weeks -.- If the credit beauros can't keep your SSN safe, why would you want a game company to have it for the sake of making sure that cheaters stay banned and smurfs / alt accounts are at least limited to one per human willing to sell one to you? It's unfortunately only a slightly higher barrier to entry, but it's at least a bit higher. Personally I don't think there's a reason for this to exist beyond "if no government can wise up and create an obvious standard, guess we'll do it" - and my guess is that it will cost the businesses money to request the information. But my real problem with this is that everything that I just said doesn't actually help. Those require that there's some kind of link to your account - even just a token that is generated that links back to your account - so that no matter how many "You" tokens anyone has, they don't know who "You" are - but they could see if a "You" token presented to them matches any other token in their database - and if so, regardless of who that token belongs to, they know not to accept you because you're already part of their database according to the auth. Unfortunately that's not what this is. They're just told "Yep that's a human" Riveting.
How are they monetizing this? That is the main question that people should be asking themselves when they choose to opt in to this. Something smells off here
I think it's literally just theater to distract from the Pandora's box they're opening with AI tech. The idea of securing peoples' identity for EVERYTHING in a decentralized, programmatic way with iris scans is absolutely braindead. 1) eyes can be gouged out--how are you going to redress the life-ending problems of people this system fails if it's literally impossible for human judgment to intervene on the system??, 2) any biometric data can be faked. You think people won't be counterfeiting irises to stack up their decentralized UBI payments?? Utter and total nonsense.
6:49 - Did I hear it correctly? "100 trillion operations per second" - wth? I cannot believe we've reached such insane amounts of calculations per just one second, it's unreal how advanced tech already is, can't even imagine how far AI would take all tech further down the road, it's insanity.

Knowing that the person you're talking to on Zoom in the future may be a little more challenging with Deep Fakes. World has a use case, but it does seem very narrow today. If I recall, it's supposed to help with UBI too but to what degree? And how is it funded? Still a mystery.

So they are basically trying to create their own version of WeChat, which encompasses everything else, but let's see if it's really decentralized
chat gpt
"
Yes, the World project shares similarities with platforms like WeChat in its aim to integrate multiple services-digital identity, financial tools, and communication-into one ecosystem. However, there are key differences:
Decentralization: Unlike WeChat, which is a centralized app run by Tencent and controlled by a single entity, World is designed to operate on decentralized blockchain technology. The World Chain (an Ethereum Layer-2 network) underpins the system, theoretically making it more secure, resilient, and less susceptible to control by governments or companies
Privacy: World emphasizes privacy-preserving tools, like the World ID, which allow users to verify their identity without sharing personal information like names or email addresses. The focus is on biometric verification through their Orb device, and they claim to limit data collection, unlike centralized platforms that gather extensive personal data
Global Inclusivity: World aims to create a globally accessible financial and identity system, which is especially relevant in regions without access to traditional banking or identification systems. This goal aligns more with blockchain’s ethos of decentralized access to financial services, compared to a closed, national ecosystem like WeChat
However, some critics argue that while World aims to be decentralized, the reliance on biometric data and centralized control of Orbs raises concerns about the actual degree of decentralization and privacy

This is 1000% not going to work, it’s not how behaviour patterns are implemented in society’s
Probably true. The concept behind it is similar to credentialing in emails that never took off. People have lived with unsecure emails for decades because that fits the pattern of human use: thoughtlessness. It is easy to ignore the fact that we're going to keep on getting attacked by identity theft due to all these apps etc that can impersonate us perfectly. Actually in an open, trustless, distributed network like the web something like a secure protocol for identity is needed but I expect adoption can be really low because people assume that this is somehow an ID system that's got some sort of conspiracy behind it. Just look at the dumb comments. So yeah this will fail and what do we get instead? Government regulation, bank control, etc. Humans think this is dystopian when what they're gonna get is more dystopian...
This will work because they will make people beg for money first. Crisis, wars, etc. And you will run to an orb to be able to buy a milk formula for your child.

Easy , simple, safe, reliable.... And FREE!!!
Yeah. You lost me at, easy. GFY
Only obedient consumers are encouraged to verify. Everybody else will have to be coerced in using social credit.

I Iike this, the bias of binary choice - it's either this or nothing - well, Apple and Google have been working on a new kind of cookie capable of detecting physical authentication through the used device, while bots and their sophisticated version "AI agents" will be fully virtual.

omg now i get it..... you need to identify to get the UBI
Minority report + Portal = worldcoin
Were you not listening? It's just called "World" now. Dystopia averted.
You all have no idea that worldcoin is the US Govt CBDC currency. All your "money" in the bank will be traded by the bank for this coin. This will force you to verify just so that you can spend your own money

People are gonna hate on this because privacy. But pretty soon they'll realise anyone can fake their identity down to the face, and voice and the ONLY way to verify a person is real is a unique on-chain signature. You might not like it but this is essential to future proof your identity from AI.
The problem is real. The "solution" is laughable bull****. Pure theater.
@@justtiredthings maybe but the idea of an ID protocol is good. If it can be used by people to credential themselves without having to rely on government credentials that's great. If it's actually secure and it can keep out bad actors from spoofing other people then it's actually really impressive. If it can't do that then it's going to be worse than useless.
But the way these guys did it from the start with the orb was just weird. And the designer talking about the temple Vibe was really not helping their case.
@@joythought I'm an anarchist. I'd be happy to see more solutions for identity and reputation emerge that don't depend upon the state. But doing it programmatically with biometric data on the blockchain is the most moronic security regime I've ever head of.

Hardware tokens are another solution. I have one from my bank as an example. If I want to transfer large amounts I need to find it and type in authentication keys it displays. Generated by hashing a code on my bank card chip. Been around for a decade.
You're going to learn what people learned with TOR. It doesn't matter what is under the hood if you control the entry and exit points.

This idea sucks ass but not for the reasons you think. They would argue that they're taking identification out of the hands of the government. But it's such a stupid, implausible solution that it's clear that they're just lying to people. Which is truly scary given what power Altman et al. are wielding. It puts the lie to all of their bull****ing about their concern for humanity. They know their tech is dangerous to *us*. They don't care, and they don't want us to know thny don't care.

Im not sure what to make of this. It gives Kickstarter scam vibes, but I dont want to scream 1984 before I really get what this is for. And I dont. what is the point of the identification thingy. Why do I need it?
Trust your gut on this one. They're trying to fool morons. Makes absolutely no sense as a method to secure unique identity.
If someone makes an AI that is undistinguisable from a real human with a laptop - they can make billion AIs running in parallel, attacking websites, influencing public discussions, scamming, etc. Then it will be useful to be able to prove that you're human on some webs, without e.g. needing to send all your passport data.
@jachymfibir that doesn't mean their solution is a remotely good one.
They're way too late, anyway. What you're talking about will be possible within a year
There is no such thing as privacy on the Internet no matter how cool the slogan is. I almost feel like open A.I is ran by the C.I.A.
I don't understand what is going on here? What is the use case? Example?
Since they mention to prove you’re human, to prevent AI or hackers from taking your identity in the future. I think AI will get smarter and they need more ways to protect humans as this technology improves.
Also since it has value attached it could be a UBI or system for humans that can’t work anymore when AI takes all jobs. We need a way of getting paid or surviving. There’s already a few million people registered with this. I’m not, as I don’t see it super urgent and there might be better systems implemented but I might register only when people start to get paid for it. But idk , I’ll probably wait until they reach 100x more people first and see how it plays out in a year or two.
Altman wants to know everything about everyone. Then charge people to query an attribute about you. E.g. you get orb scanned, fill in a witnessed notarized questionnaire. Go to a liquor store, show your world ID. Store sends details of your visit to Altman, with question "is worldid(you)>21?", altman returns yes or no. Depending on answer you can or cannot buy.

@@WeddingVideographerMelbourne it doesn’t matter what the public thinks. Once governments adopt it for passport verification (already begun), taxes, signing up for social security or whatever you will have no choice.
Passports and state ID are not about verifying age or that you’re a citizen of a specific country. They’re used to verify WHO you are. Providing credentials of someone that owns a house is not enough to sell their house. Their face needs to match their credentials to verify their identity.

So, someone will design the anti-orb: An AI model trained on hundreds of thousands of real Iris pics and prepares a new AI-generated Iris pic, then uses the orb to create a new worldcoin :-). I can imagine what would the first spoofs look like - someone would take a dick pic and convert it to an orb iris pic using an AI model, but it would still resemble a dick pic and the worldcoin project will fail to understand the joke and accept it as legit. Then they would try to make it more complicated, but the AI will always win as this is a very simple diffusion based model to implement.
That's probably a real concern. If they end up with 8 billion registered "humans" and it turns out that 1/2 of them are from ai-generated irises then that's going to cause problems for any programs that run based on the humaneness of all the registered participants. But if I want to use this system to prove that I'm human and that you are human on a Zoom call it may still have some value. Let's imagine it is 5 years from now and you and I are closing a business deal. But on this call a scammer is trying to redirect the payment and so "you" show up in my zoom call but you are actually an AI generated version of you which is trying to scam me and you're not really a human then you'll need a World ID. If the scammer can't get one then I'm going to be protected from the scam and if they can get the id then maybe in fact World is on the hook for the losses I incur for the scam that is being run on me. So in theory it doesn't necessarily negate the value of this human ID protocol.
That is such an unrealistic scenario... If you are a business and want to close a deal with a client, you would be using secure internal communication systems, with VPNs, encrypted networks and multi-factor authentication. The attacker would have to bypass all of that to get into a call with you. If that were the case this attacker has a lot of resources, so they can probably use AI generated fake eyes based on the original human to get the ID.
If instead we're talking about grandma being called by the son, a grandma would have no idea how World ID works, and would not even ask the son for it, or understand how to check for it. Old people are inevitably easy to target due to lower cognitive abilities, and that's not going to change with a World ID.
Sam thinks the public is stupid. We/Gov will tell tech companies to label all AI content and force AI to identify itself.

okay and how is this relevant TODAY?? ill need to sleep for like 3 years first for this be something i care about.
Well, for many countries if you want to ban a human from playing your game or limit them to one single account you're asking for ID - which means that you now need to store and handle a very sensitive government ID.
Frankly, iirc South Korea has a very good system for this. Relying on a static number that can never change (SSN) is very.. not good - especially when they get exposed every 3 weeks -.-
If the credit beauros can't keep your SSN safe, why would you want a game company to have it for the sake of making sure that cheaters stay banned and smurfs / alt accounts are at least limited to one per human willing to sell one to you? It's unfortunately only a slightly higher barrier to entry, but it's at least a bit higher. Personally I don't think there's a reason for this to exist beyond "if no government can wise up and create an obvious standard, guess we'll do it" - and my guess is that it will cost the businesses money to request the information.
But my real problem with this is that everything that I just said doesn't actually help. Those require that there's some kind of link to your account - even just a token that is generated that links back to your account - so that no matter how many "You" tokens anyone has, they don't know who "You" are - but they could see if a "You" token presented to them matches any other token in their database - and if so, regardless of who that token belongs to, they know not to accept you because you're already part of their database according to the auth.
Unfortunately that's not what this is.
They're just told "Yep that's a human"
Riveting.
So before having a zoom call, we should go to a "temple" with an orb to get verified we're a human? :D
don’t forget to worship!
How are they monetizing this? That is the main question that people should be asking themselves when they choose to opt in to this. Something smells off here
I think it's literally just theater to distract from the Pandora's box they're opening with AI tech. The idea of securing peoples' identity for EVERYTHING in a decentralized, programmatic way with iris scans is absolutely braindead. 1) eyes can be gouged out--how are you going to redress the life-ending problems of people this system fails if it's literally impossible for human judgment to intervene on the system??, 2) any biometric data can be faked. You think people won't be counterfeiting irises to stack up their decentralized UBI payments??
