This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
"Brian takes a cut, which varies depending on the client. “I keep more from the junkies,” he said."
What a piece of shit, rips off some of the most marginalized people in society.
From the title, I thought people were actually selling their eyeballs for money.
same, and only reason I even looked at the article. why cant crypto just die already? it's just a huge scam
How is Worldcoin still a thing?
Sam Altman
I don’t know why anyone would trust Sam Altman. He’s not, like, some noble visionary or great inventor. He’s just a business-side guy who seems to be able to network, raise a lot of money, and navigate corporate intrigue.
Which is perfectly fine. OpenAI needs someone who can network and raise loads of money. But I wouldn’t trust him any more than I’d trust a politician or car salesman.
Yeah, he's pretty much going to sell humanity out to the machines and make Skynet a reality.
My understanding is the premise of world coin is to provide identity verification somehow, but I don't get how is it supposed to work?
Also how does it benefit the network to have scanned irises for people who don't care about world coin or understand how it works?
You're looking at it wrong. This is a scheme to collect mass amounts of biometric data. What's the end goal? No idea, but I doubt it'll be to the benefit of mankind.
I didn't say it was good or I support it. I'm trying to understand it. Which is usually an important step to effectively combat something.
