Lots of skepticism, but now that this has launched — it'll be interesting to see if normies will embrace it and allow their retinas to be scanned into the blockchain for about $60... With generative AI, we're definitely going to need ways to distinguish between human and machine actors — but is this the right vehicle to achieve that outcome? It certainly isn't a flawless plan...!

I listened to half of the Bankless interview with @sama and @alexblania yesterday. It's a good conversation and provides a lot more insight into their goals and implementation decisions. Regardless of some peoples' skepticism, it's a bold idea that could become a foundational layer to many use cases, well beyond UBI. This is definitely worth watching (sorry... couldn't resist the pun). :)

@sama @alexblania @rrhoover it's a ONE WAY street. You can NEVER change your eyeballs. Biometrics should never be given away to a 3rd party. Sure, use biometrics *locally* on your own device, but never give it away as it can't be undone, and the 3rd party can NEVER prove with certainty that they deleted the data as they claim. Not to mention this creates an economic incentive for criminals to organ harvest eyeballs. Terrible incentives.

The first time I needed a downvote button on PH. It's naive to think that AI will not be able to generate fake biometric data to fool systems like this. We need a decentralized reputation graph of public keys, and all content simply must be signed or assumed fake.

As a technology anthropologist who's helped many companies bring software/hardware products to market, this is unlikely to succeed for several reasons. Growing mistrust of biometrics as a whole, the general market has zero trust for crypto right now, neither this hardware nor blockchain can scale at what would be needed at a societal level. I could go on.

blockchain developers should understand "how finance works" first, you can't bootstrap a new economy from scratch.

why does this have a privacy tag ?

I don't like it one bit. It reeks to the high heavens of data farming, biometrics farming etc. and if anyone capitulates for 60 bucks they would want to have themselves checked out. I hear you..but google and everyone else takes your data/biometrics etc.. a terrible argument, they're also crooks. The Worldcoin is BTC
