Tools for humanity, startup for global human verification, co -founded by the general director of OPENAI, Altman himself, presented a mobile device designed on Wednesday to assist people determine the difference between human and AI agent.
Rich Heley, tools for the director of the device of humanity and the former director of Apple, were debuted by the mini device ORB during the event “Finally” in San Francisco. The device looks like a smartphone and has two large sensors on the front to scan the eyeballs of users.
World, the Web3 project initiated by Altman and Alex Blania, who was previously generally known as Worldcoin, is based on the concept that ultimately it will not be possible to tell apart people from AI agents on the Internet. To solve this problem, World desires to create digital tools for “human proof”; These ads are part of the efforts so that thousands and thousands of people register.
After scanning of the eyeball of one of the silver metal balls – or now one of his balls – the world will offer you a unique blockchain identifier to see if you are a human.
ORB Mini, a reference to larger company ball devices, has a known shape of a smartphone and is designed to be portable, a spokesman for tools for humanity, said TechCrunch during a briefing. According to people familiar with the recent product, Thomas Meyerhoff, the former Apple designer has helped to design ORB Mini.
The most important goal of ORB MINI is to confirm more people, not necessarily using the application, make calls or send SMSs. However, the spokesman said it was not clear what the final functionality of the device could be.
After the event, Blania told Techcrunch that she was aimed at finally transforming ORB Mini into a mobile device, and perhaps even sell sensor technology to device manufacturers.
On Thursday, the tools for humanity also introduce its world network in the USA and will open shop windows in Austin, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville and San Francisco. Shops that the world already has in other countries are intended for individuals who could enter and scan the eyes through one of the company’s balls.

While the company was light in terms of details about its mini bullet, the device appears to be an try to wider widespread verification devices. While the world’s goals have modified over the years, the bullet seems basic for their mission.
The key query around the swirling around the world is whether one day will work with one other undertaking Altman, Opennai. It is not clear whether the ORB Mini will have AI functions or whether it is related to the AI Openai device, which is supposedly working.
