AI summary of the linked articleProof of personhood aims to tie each registered account to a unique real human, and biometric versions such as Worldcoin's iris-scanning Orb raise tradeoffs that must be weighed against social-graph approaches or giving up on proof of personhood entirely. Worldcoin, co-founded by Sam Altman, scans each user's iris with the Orb and stores only hashes of the scans to check uniqueness.
