山姆·奥特曼（Sam Altman）有争议的区块链项目World正在美国推出

世界上的球体 - 镀铬，保龄球的球形设备，扫描一个人的眼球以确认其身份 - 最初将在六个“关键创新枢纽”中使用美国人使用

Sam Altman’s controversial blockchain project, World, is launching in the U.S. – and said it intends to roll out 7,500 eye-scanning “orbs” in cities across the country by the end of the year.

山姆·奥特曼（Sam Altman）备受争议的区块链项目世界正在美国推出 - 并表示打算在今年年底之前在全国各地的城市推出7,500张眼球的“球”。

World’s orbs — chrome, bowling ball-shaped devices that scan a person’s eyeballs to confirm their identity — will initially be available to Americans in six “key innovation hubs,” the company said: Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville and San Francisco. Those who decide to take the plunge and gaze into the orb will gain access to the World app and receive an airdrop of World’s WLD token.

该公司表示，世界上的球体 - 镀铬，保龄球球形的设备，扫描一个人的眼球以确认其身份 - 最初将在六个“关键创新枢纽”中的美国人使用：亚特兰大，奥斯汀，洛杉矶，迈阿密，迈阿密，纳什维尔，纳什维尔和旧金山。那些决定冒险并凝视Orb的人将访问世界应用程序，并获得世界上WLD代币的空投。

By the end of the year, the project aims to have enough orbs spread throughout the U.S. to give 180 million Americans, more than half the population, access to World’s network.

到今年年底，该项目的目标是在美国各地散布足够的球体，使1.8亿美国人（超过一半的人口）进入世界网络。

Altman and other executives at World’s parent company Tools for Humanity announced the U.S. expansion at a press conference in San Francisco on Wednesday evening, along with a dizzying slew of new features and partnerships for the project.

世界母公司人类工具的Altman和其他高管在周三晚上在旧金山举行的新闻发布会上宣布了美国的扩张，以及该项目的许多新功能和合作伙伴关系令人震惊。

The World app will now offer its users access to crypto-backed loans through non-custodial lending protocol Morpho and prediction markets through Kalshi. Later this year, WLD holders will be able to spend their tokens like cash with a new World-linked Visa debit card. The project is even integrating its identity-verification technology into some online dating apps. Starting with Tinder users in Japan, online dating giant Match Group will pilot using World ID to verify the ages of its users.

现在，该世界应用程序将通过非监测贷款协议Morpho和通过Kalshi的预测市场为用户提供获得加密支持的贷款。今年晚些时候，WLD持有人将能够用新的世界链接签证借记卡来花费像Cash这样的令牌。该项目甚至将其身份验证技术集成到某些在线约会应用程序中。从日本的Tinder用户开始，在线约会巨头比赛组将使用世界ID驾驶以验证其用户的年龄。

Altman said that the idea for World predated OpenAI, his generative artificial intelligence (AI) company.

阿尔特曼说，世界上的想法是他的生成人工智能（AI）公司Openai。

“We needed some sort of way for authenticating humans in the age of [artificial general intelligence],” Altman said during the press conference. “We needed a way that we could know what content was made by humans, [and what was made] by AI. We wanted a way to make sure that humans stayed special and central in a world where the internet was going to have lots of AI-driven content.”

“我们需要某种方式来验证[人工通用情报]时代的人类，”阿尔特曼在新闻发布会上说。 “我们需要一种方法，我们可以知道人类制造了什么内容，以及AI所做的内容。我们希望一种方法来确保人类在互联网将拥有很多AI驱动内容的世界中保持与众不同和中心。”

Altman’s initial ideas about how to solve the problem of human verification were “very crazy,” he said – World and its eye-scanning orbs, only a little.

他说，阿尔特曼关于如何解决人类验证问题的最初想法是“非常疯狂的”，他说 - 世界及其眼球的球体，只有一点。

World is the latest crypto project to announce a U.S. expansion. Since President Donald Trump took office in January, the regulatory environment has become much friendlier to crypto projects.

世界是宣布美国扩张的最新加密项目。自从唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）总统于1月份上任以来，监管环境已成为加密项目的友好。

The company announced it would be building a factory in Richardson, Texas – a suburb of Dallas – to help produce the orbs needed for its coming U.S. expansion. After the initial rollout, other major cities including Seattle, Orlando, San Diego and Las Vegas will receive the second wave of orbs.

该公司宣布将在德克萨斯州理查森（Dallas of Dallas）建造一家工厂，以帮助生产其即将到来的美国扩张所需的球体。最初推出后，包括西雅图，奥兰多，圣地亚哥和拉斯维加斯在内的其他主要城市将获得第二波球。

“They will really be everywhere,” said Alex Blania, Tools for Humanity’s co-founder. “They will be in gas stations, convenience stores, and you will be able to verify within 10 minutes wherever you are.”

“他们真的无处不在，”人类联合创始人工具亚历克斯·布兰尼亚（Alex Blania）说。 “它们将在加油站，便利店里，您将能够在10分钟内验证。”
