AI is the least capable it's ever going to be today. Proving that we are human online is the new table stakes to keep the internet useful for all of us. Sandro's post and whitepaper / blog really goes deep on why the world needs it, and why our approach is the future.
1/ Proof of Human is becoming increasingly critical. In the limit democracy and human agency depend on it. But building Proof of Human is unexpectedly challenging. FaceID doesn't prevent one person to fabricate human presence for thousands of AI agents. Government ID based Proof of Human is a surveillance risk and only 1b out of 8 billion people have verifiable IDs. An anti-surveillance and effective Proof of Human that actually empowers people requires new technology [paper linked in thread] 🧵

Advertisers pay to reach people, not bots. Proud to join Hakuhodo DY and LG Electronics in Tokyo 🇯🇵 today to build the Human-Verified Ad Network with World ID. Greater trust in advertising. Better value for businesses. Privacy for people. Starting in Japan, with global ambition.
本日、博報堂Dホールディングスにて「人間認証型広告」事業を展開するAds for HumanityとLGエレクトロニクスと共に、AI時代の“人間のための広告”へ、「人間認証型広告」を三位一体で推進することを発表いたしました。 インターネットに占めるボットのトラフィック数が53%。
AIエージェントによるトラフィック数も前年比で7,851%となっています。 こうしたなか、広告業界では、ボットなどを使って広告の表示やクリックを偽装し、広告費を不正に詐取する「アドフラウド」の被害が拡大しており、全世界で13兆円(2023年)。日本国内だけでも1592億円(2025年)の被害が発生するなど、実在する人間に広告を届けることが重要になりつつあります。 このようななか、今回の業務提携では、Ads for HumanityがWorld IDを活用し、「実在する人間」のみに広告を届けるソリューションを提供するとともに、人間認証型広告をAds for Humanity、LGエレクトロニクスと共に推進してまいります。 なお、「人間認証型広告」を先行導入したローソンエンタテイメント様においては、クリック率が3倍、1クリックあたりの広告費(CPC)が61%削減するなどの効果も本日発表されました。
 こちらに関する詳細のプレスリリースも発表致しましたので、ご一読ください。 prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/00… @worldnetwork

Hot take: you should be able to delegate your @world_id to your personal agent. @alexblania explains on @tbpn

In Tokyo 🇯🇵 right now and learning about the very frequent cyber attacks that are happening here. A stolen password or convincing help-desk call shouldn’t be enough to take over an account. @world_id’s approach to enterprise MFA: bind the account to the human, then verify that same human at login and recovery. Authenticate the human not just the credential. #サイバー攻撃 #CyberSecurity

A convincing caller should no longer be sufficient evidence to reset an employee’s security.

In Tokyo 🇯🇵 getting ready for a super important launch tomorrow. In the mean time - AI agents shouldn’t have to pretend to be human to get things done. They should be able to prove they’re acting for one without sacrificing privacy.

AIが高度化し、ビジネス上のやり取りがますますオンラインへ移行するなか、組織においても、オンライン上の相手が実在する人間であり、本人であることを確認することが必要となってきています。 このような中、#Zoomtopia APAC にて@Zoom のラッセル・ディッカーCPOが『「World ID for Zoom」は、ハードウェアに基づく生体認証によって、Zoomの参加者に『認証済みの人間』であることを示すバッジを付与します』とZoomのディープフェイクリスク検知ラインナップの一つとして紹介しました。 「World ID for Zoom」は、WorldのProof of Human技術とZoomのRealtime Media Streams(RTMS)を活用し、話している相手がディープフェイクではなく実在する人間であり、本人であることの確認を行い、「AIセーフ」なディープフェイク対策技術として、Zoom App Marketplaceにて提供を開始しております。 詳細は、プレスリリースまたは、WEBサイトよりご確認ください。 ▼ Zoom App Marketplaceにて、「World ID for Zoom」提供開始のお知らせ prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/00… ▼ World ID for Zoomについて world.org/ja-jp/solutions/wo… @worldnetwork

introducing Trusted Agent Delegation (TAD) @Cloudflare and @worldnetwork are collaborating on a new framework to enable secure agent delegation the ultimate goal is for TAD to empower people to use their personal agents on any site across the internet, without sites getting crushed by fraud/abuse from bad bots or bad actors today at Cloudflare Connect we presented our shared vision for an approach centered around restoring the relationship between sites and users when using hosted agents, which is currently obscured it will also support next generation attestations and verifications, starting with World ID's Proof of Human we will publish the white paper and establish a working group in the coming weeks to collaborate with the broader agent ecosystem

Existence we're living inside the Matrix has been confirmed... Or at least headed towards Minority Report. Either way, the World ID app @worldcoinfnd is currently the best/only real-proof of a unique human. Your retinal scan + ongoing face ID generates the ~2k World Foundation proof token. This solves Agent impersonation. Zoom & Tinder implement it to prevent deepfakes. There's probably no rush to get it done today, but I can see agentic systems in the future using World ID for realtime and cached authorizations to act on your behalf. #cloudflareconnect
