Tinder wants to check your humanity by gazing into an orb. Yes, you read that right

Online dating is already a trust minefield, and now Tinder wants to add an eyeball scan to the mix. The popular dating app has announced a global partnership with World, the biometric identity company founded by OpenAI’s Sam Altman. To prove you are a real human on Tinder, you will soon have the option to get your eyes scanned by a physical orb device.

What is World ID and how does Tinder’s human verification work?

World is a company built around the idea that proving your humanity online will become increasingly important as AI bots multiply and outnumber real people on the internet. Its solution is a proprietary scanning device called the Orb, which scans your irises at its physical outlets to verify that you are a real person.
