OpenAI considers using World eye scanning identity tech for a new social platform as Worldcoin jumps more than 25%. Sources familiar with the effort described the platform as “real humans only” network, positioning OpenAI against bot-driven engagement that has plagued platforms such as X. The proposed identity checks would rely on proof-of-personhood systems including World’s Orb, which creates a unique identifier from a user’s iris. World is operated by Tools for Humanity, a company founded by OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman. The report sparked renewed interest in World, with its native WLD token surging more than 25% on the day to around $0.55.
