The head of OpenAI and developer of ChatGPT Sam Altman announced the launch of a cryptocurrency project called World (WLD) in the USA. It can be obtained in exchange for scanning the iris of the eye, writes The Verge.
The image of the retina after scanning is converted into a unique hash code. This code will serve as proof that the owner of the World ID profile is a human, not an AI.
As a reward for providing biometrics, users receive up to 150 WLD. The company plans to issue a Visa debit card that will allow converting WLD into fiat currency.
