World also announced that users will soon be able to verify their identity through methods other than the firm’s Orb hardware. Through a program called World ID Credentials, the company says users with NFC-enabled government issued passports will allow them to verify their identity on the World app.

World 也宣布，用戶很快將能夠透過該公司 Orb 硬體以外的方法驗證自己的身分。該公司表示，透過一項名為 World ID Credentials 的計劃，擁有支援 NFC 的政府頒發護照的用戶將允許他們在 World 應用程式上驗證自己的身分。

Another major announcement came in the form of World ID Deep Face, a service the company claims has “solved deepfakes.”

另一項重大公告是 World ID Deep Face，該公司聲稱這項服務已經「解決了深度偽造問題」。

According to the company, its software can be implemented into just about any app where video can be uploaded or streamed to determine whether videos featuring verified persons are real or have been faked using AI.

據該公司稱，其軟體可以應用到幾乎任何可以上傳或串流影片的應用程式中，以確定經過驗證的人員的影片是真實的還是使用人工智慧偽造的。

Finally, the company also announced that so far 15 million users have signed up for its World app service; among them, seven million are verified.

最後，該公司還宣布，迄今已有 1,500 萬用戶註冊了其 World 應用服務；其中已核實700萬。
