Inkampani eyasungulwa ngokuhlanganyela yi-CEO ye-OpenAI uSam Altman iqoqe amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-115 ku-Worldcoin, iphrojekthi ye-crypto coin ehlola ama-eyeballs abasebenzisi ukuze “ithole ubuntu obuyingqayizivele bomuntu.” Ngaphezu kokuhola umenzi we-ChatGPT ne-GPT-4, u-Altman ungumsunguli kanye nosihlalo we Amathuluzi Obuntuinkampani eyakha ubuchwepheshe be I-Worldcoin iphrojekthi.
I-Tools for Humanity namuhla imemezele izigidi ezingu-115 zamaRandi ku-Series C uxhaso oluvela ku-Blockchain Capital, isikhwama se-crypto sika-Andreessen Horowitz, i-Bain Capital Crypto, kanye ne-Distributed Global. I-Blockchain Capital ithe uhlelo lwe-Worldcoin “World ID” olubandakanya ukuskena kwe-eyeball luzokwenza kube lula ukuthi izinhlelo zokusebenza zihlukanise phakathi kwe-bot nabantu.
I-Worldcoin
“I-Worldcoin ilwela ukuba inethiwekhi yomazisi nezezimali enkulu kunazo zonke futhi ebandakanya kakhulu, eyakhiwe emhlabeni wonke nge-World ID kanye nethokheni ye-Worldcoin-insizakalo yomphakathi ezoba ngeyawo wonke umuntu kungakhathaliseki isizinda sakhe noma isimo sezomnotho,” kusho ukukhishwa kwezimali kwenkampani ye-crypto. .
IWorldcoin inikeza a Uhlelo lokusebenza lomhlaba ye-iOS ne-Android, “evumela umuntu ukuthi amise i-akhawunti yakhe ye-Worldcoin futhi afinyelele isikhwama semali sedijithali esixhunywe ku-Worldcoin, i-Bitcoin, i-Ethereum nezinye izimali zedijithali nezendabuko ezihlanganisa ama-stablecoins,” kusho inkampani.
Ingxenye yokuskena inhlamvu yeso iqala ukusebenza kunoma ubani obhalisela i-ID Yomhlaba. Lokhu kudinga ukuya endaweni ebonakalayo nokusebenzisa amehlo akho kanye nedivayisi ebizwa ngokuthi “i-Orb” ukuze uqinisekise ukuthi ungumuntu wangempela.
“I-Orb isebenzisa i-iris biometrics ukuze isungule ubuntu obuhlukile bomuntu, bese idala i-ID Yomhlaba Yedijithali engasetshenziswa ngokuyimfihlo ezinhlelweni eziningi zansuku zonke ngaphandle kokudalula ubunikazi bomsebenzisi,” kusho i-Worldcoin.
Ukutholakala kwe-Orb kukhawulelwe
Uhlelo lokusebenza Lomhlaba ngokwalo lungasetshenziswa ngaphandle kokubhalisela i-ID Yomhlaba, kusho inkampani. Kodwa i-Worldcoin ithi abantu abathola i-ID Yomhlaba bazophinde bathole amathokheni e-Worldcoin mahhala kanye nenani elithile lemali yamahhala ye-bitcoin ne-ether.
I-Worldcoin isekuyi-beta, futhi amathokheni ayo “awahloselwe ukuthi atholakale kubantu base-United States noma kwezinye izindawo ezikhawulelwe,” a Iphrojekthi ye-FAQ uthi. Isakhamuzi sase-US singathola i-ID Yomhlaba, kodwa uhlelo lokusebenza Lomhlaba lutshela abasebenzisi ukuthi awekho ama-Orbs e-United States okwamanje.
“Sisebenza kanzima ukuletha ama-Orbs kuwo wonke amazwe Omhlaba,” uhlelo lokusebenza lusho uma utholakala kwelinye lalawo mazwe aneshwa le-Orb-less.
Nakuba i-Worldcoin ithi amathokheni ayo ayihloselwe ukuthi atholakale kubantu base-US, i-Hardware ye-Orb izoboniswa emadolobheni ambalwa ase-US ezinyangeni ezizayo. Inkampani kumenyezelwe “ukuvakasha” kwe-Orb lapho “i-Worldcoin Orbs izotholakala khona isikhathi esilinganiselwe” kusukela ngoMeyi kuya kuJulayi e-Berlin, Dubai, London, Mexico City, Miami, New York City, San Francisco, Seoul, nase-Tokyo.
Umtshalizimali: I-Worldcoin akuyona “iphupho elibi le-dystopian”
Enkulumweni yabezindaba, i-Tools for Humanity ithe uxhaso olusha “luzosheshisa i-R&D eqhubekayo ye-TFH nokukhula, ikwazi ukusekela ukunwetshwa kwephrojekthi ye-Worldcoin futhi ithuthuke. Uhlelo lokusebenza Lomhlabaisikhwama sokuqala se-Worldcoin ecosystem.”
I-Blockchain Capital General Partner uSpencer Bogart uvikele i-Worldcoin ekugxekeni ubumfihlo nokuvikeleka okutholwe yiphrojekthi yokuskena iris. “Ngangicabanga ukuthi i-Worldcoin yayiyiphupho elibi le-dystopian Orwellian, ithimba lethu latshala amakhulu amahora lihlola ukuthi yini ngempela abahlanganyeli bephrojekthi abayakhe futhi ngawushintsha ngokuphelele umqondo wami,” u-Bogart. wabhala ku-Twitter.
U-Bogart wathi “i-Worldcoin cishe iphrojekthi eyodwa engaqondakali kakhulu kuyo yonke i-crypto,” ephawula ukuthi “uma uthi nhlá, ibonakala iyinhlanganisela eyingozi ye-hardware, i-biometrics, i-crypto ne-AI.”
Kodwa “empeleni,” ngokusho kukaBogart, “ID yeWorldcoin’s World yisisombululo esinamandla kakhulu esisibonile” enkingeni yamashumi eminyaka ubudala. “Ngamafuphi, i-Worldcoin inethuba eliyingqayizivele lokusungula nokukala uhlobo olusha olugcina ubumfihlo lwe-inthanethi (World ID) oluvumela noma yiluphi uhlelo lokusebenza ukuhlukanisa kalula phakathi kwemishini (amabhothi) nabantu.”
I-Blockchain Capital ithe kuyo iwebhusayithi ukuthi “I-World ID inika abantu amandla okuqinisekisa ubuntu babo ku-inthanethi kuyilapho begcina ukungaziwa ngobufakazi obungenalo ulwazi. Ukuqinisekisa kulula njengokuchofoza inkinobho ukuze usayine okwenziwayo.”
