Explore the present and future of WorldCoin.

WorldCoin invested 8 billion Tokens, just to allow users to receive a certain share of digital assets for free, and to create a financial network system centered on individual identities. Although the construction of this project faces potential technical risks, it has brought valuable experience to entrepreneurs in the Web3 era, and has also brought human-machine collaborative development in the AI ​​​​era into the focus of discussion again.

With the doubts and expectations of deciphering the future development of WorldCoin, many guests from the Web3 and AI industries gathered in the cloud,Explore the new opportunities that WorldCoin empowers the Web3 industrywonderful point of view

wonderful point of view

  • WorldCoin may attract many users in the short term, but the space for sustainable development is still limited

  • Avoid the risk of iris information identification - send instructions and requests to users, and the platform actively pushes risk reports

  • Entrepreneurship Enlightenment of WorldCoin: Breaking the framework restrictions and thinking confinement, and doing meaningful projects that benefit mankind

  • With the advent of the AI ​​era, developers should give full play to their human advantages in thinking, organization, and morality

"Common wealth" brings short-term explosion, but long-term development is weak

In order to let everyone get a "piece of cake" in the encrypted world, Worldcoin distributed a total of 10 billion Tokens in the first half of this year, 80% of which belonged to users. As a project jointly launched by OpenAI co-founders Altman and Alex Blania, Worldcoin hopes to create a global identity and financial network for everyone since its inception, embracing the future of "common wealth". Contrary to the beautiful vision, it is the skinny reality,Can the massive Token issued by WorldCoin really build a cyclical model for the organic growth of the project?

Mr. Poisson believes that although WorldCoin's move can attract many users in a short period of time, it cannot involve users who are really poor in information. "This approach similar to airdrops is only short-lived, and the space for sustainable development is very limited. Including the relatively high threshold for airdrops, it is very difficult to carry out agency business in more than 20 countries and regions. In the short term, the project has There is a certain room for growth, and in the long run, it will fall into the predicament of insufficient liquidity," added Teacher Adam and Teacher Leo.

Iris information: authentication method that does more harm than good

As a technical means of identification, iris information is the verification method adopted by WorldCoin.It uses a device called an Orb to scan the irises of people's eyes, proving a user's unique identity.Similar to other identity information collection and identification technologies, obtaining iris information for biological proof will also be deeply involved in disputes over issues such as ethics and privacy. "At present, iris information recognition is a very risky thing. Choosing iris recognition is different from face recognition. We cannot be sure that iris information is more secure than other biometric methods. This technology itself is full of doubts. , if there is the ability to build a global information base, it will cause many scenarios of identity verification and identification to fail,” Adam analyzed.

Whether it violates the moral code is not easy to identify, but the hidden risks are obvious.first level title

"Precise Poverty Alleviation" has a long and difficult road

In order to create a global identity and financial network, WorldCoin has made clear its own development vision - "poverty alleviation" since its establishment.In a contemporary society where the digital divide is increasing, it is even more difficult to truly reach poor users and set poverty standards.Even if the project party goes deep into poverty-stricken areas with various technical equipment, it is difficult for many poor people to really get started with the project operation and change their living conditions. In addition, although AI is an important technical tool for providing productivity, it still faces the demand of limited production resources and cannot support the expansion of the project scale. It is gratifying if WorldCoin can concentrate on building a DID digital identity system.

At the same time, the guest teachers at the scene also believed that poverty alleviation needs a source of funds. Where does the WorldCoin fund for poverty alleviation come from? As far as the current business model is concerned, WorldCoin is a wallet without actual value support. A stable and sustainable commercial profit distribution model like OpenAI has not yet formed, so the targeted poverty alleviation of the global population that WorldCoin hopes to achieve may only be like a castle in the air.

So without these realistic landing conditions, is WorldCoin really useless? Teacher Leo affirmed the original intention of Worldcoin. As an attempt to reconstruct the world management system and identity system,The WorldCoin technical team has taken a big step, but there is still a long way to go before realizing the dream of "precise poverty alleviation". In terms of data collection and analysis, privacy and security analysis, etc., it is necessary to design a more complete solution to speed up the setting Transparent supervision mechanism to prevent the abuse of identity information,first level title

Entrepreneur's Apocalypse: Collaborating with AI

"I think WorldCoin is a very successful entrepreneurial project in the bear market. Its most attractive feature lies in the background of the founder. After all, OpenAI has made many projects that turn decay into magic. This endorsement effect will make us believe that WorldCoin has great potential", in When talking about WorldCoin's enlightenment to entrepreneurs, Mr. Poisson summed it up like this.

In fact,Any entrepreneurial project may be questioned at the initial stage, whether it is a technical method or a source of financing. "For entrepreneurs, making meaningful projects that benefit mankind is the goal." Mr. Adam believes that such entrepreneurial projects have a real market and development future. WorldCoin has already made a good start for entrepreneurs. Breaking the existing framework restrictions and the confinement of logical thinking is something we can learn from. With strong technological strength, it is the best to be able to start a business successfully in the bear market of the Web3 world. In the future, developers and entrepreneurs who are interested in building Web3 also need to have strong marketing and planning capabilities, and promoting the project to take root is the key.

As a good helper in work and life, AI is also a "competitive" partner in the era of entrepreneurship. How to improve the competitiveness of human work and make unique entrepreneurial projects without being replaced by AI is an important proposition. The guest teachers at the scene agreed that it is not necessary for us to distinguish the role of AI in the digital space, but to make good use of AI as a technical tool for entrepreneurship, form a friendly cooperative relationship, and give full play to the moral, ideological, and organizational aspects of the individual as the main body. irreplaceability.
