World, known as WorldCoin until late 2024 when AI became trendier than cryptocurrency, announced on Tuesday that it was opening a limited beta of its new AgentKit. The new tech, says World, will serve as a way to tie AI agents directly to a human to prevent bad actors from abusing agentic AI and “infuse trust into the system.”

Given this is a World venture, that damn eyeball-scanning-orb is still involved.

    Why are they so hell bent on finding a reason to scan eyeballs

    Why even bother with this? Everybody knows that the new excuse for bot-based disasters is blaming the AI on it. Identity doesn’t matter. Facebook’s Head of AI Safety foolishly left a bot alone, and almost lost all her emails.

    A single human is allowed to delegate their World ID to as many agents as they want.

    The only thing this provides is a great way to encourage identity theft. Thanks to the “code is law” underpinnings, the rules governing your personal safety will be “not your keys, not your identity”.

    So the bullshit can then be blamed on the user? I doubt it. They will still blame the AI when mistakes are made.
