World ID for human-backed agents.

For the first time, developers can build agents that carry cryptographic proof of a unique human behind them, what we are calling human-backed agents. The proof of unique human distinction provides an added layer of trust for interactions and transactions.

Actually, do people realize why World is Sam Altman's second column next to OpenAI? It's the same reason why we had this whistleblower recently reveal that Meta is spending millions in lobbying to KYC everyone to use social media. They all want to ID us so that the training data for their AI remains high quality. That's simply the reason.

They need to know who's commenting, if it's an agent or a human. And they're willing to create this dystopian privacy nightmare JUST because of that

The missing piece is uniqueness. Websites need a way to know that there is a real, unique human behind an agent, without needing to know who that human is.

Lol there is ALWAYS a unique human behind every agent btw.
