Sam Altman’s Worldcoin, which runs a unique “orb” verification system, has continued its expansion strides with a recent entry into Austria.
Worldcoin To Revolutionize Decentralized Identity Verification
This latest development marks an additional extension of Worldcoin’s European operations. Similarly, it reflects the firm’s commitment to establishing a widespread, decentralized identity verification network across Europe and beyond via World ID verification.
Consequently, residents of Austria and multiple parts of Vienna can walk into Worldcoin orb verification stations to get their identity verified. Although, the service is only available to Austrians who are 18 years old and above. This is a significant milestone for Worldcoin as it gets to increase its user base which already includes 6.3 million users.
Noteworthy, the digital identity verification company already has a footprint in Ecuador, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. With the recent expansion to Austria, Worldcoin is in search of ambassadors who can promote the project locally.
Interested persons stand to benefit early access to new features and networking opportunities.
Sam Altman-led OpenAI Launch New Tools
Meanwhile, OpenAI which Sam Altman is equally linked to, has released a few new Artificial Intelligence (AI) models in the last couple of weeks. Two months ago, the firm launched its latest flagship model, GPT-4o (omni), designed to reason across audio, vision, and text in real time, revolutionizing human-computer interaction.
Precisely, ChatGPT 4 omni model is designed to offer versatility, accepting input in any combination of text, audio, and images, while generating outputs in the same modalities. So far, it has shown it has an impressive response time to audio inputs in 232 milliseconds with an average of 320 milliseconds. This surpasses human reaction times and enhances the naturalness of interactions.
More recently, OpenAI unveiled its latest innovation dubbed SearchGPT. This is an AI-driven search engine designed to compete with Google Search. It is still in the prototype phase.
