ted (not lasso)

here are a few off-the-cuff reactions to World, v open to learning more but not sure the best place to start. WHAT I LIKE - incredible, tasteful branding; nails the language and positioning "the real human network," super high quality events / experiences to-date - the hardware is actually sick AF; have you seen an Orb IRL? - arguably the largest scale and reach out of any crypto company (300k new accounts in the last 7 days alone) - mini app ecosystem is robust; 250M+ mini app opens recorded to date WHAT I'M SKEPTICAL ABOUT - privacy, esp for Western users; who wants to give their biometric data to OpenAI, predicting some sort of partnership at their event next week - lots of non-Western humans use ChatGPT for translation / replies, so even though they are "real humans" the responses reads as AI-generated or low-effort so doesn't solve "dead internet theory" - human-first blockchain but has pretty bad customer service lol

Good feedback! The biometric stuff is good tech / bad optics. No one is getting your biometric data but hard to overcome that impression. And yeah, on point 2, big learning is that "human only social" DOES NOT mean spam is gone. Most humans post spam lol.

good points I think they need to play the long game with adoption in the west , tech is getting more invasive, expectations are shifting They have one orb in poland in a smaller city with college students, the first few weeks the coffee shop that had it was jammers non stop Broke ass students will sell far worse than their eyeballs for a quick buck, even better if theres something compelling on the other side of the transaction - doesn't even need to be sophisticated can be free coffees/beers on a regular trip, would still be astonishingly sticky

Using chatgpt… I’ve suggested they should enable or bring on the in-app translation, so that, anyone can write in their languages and it can be translated, same way, the translation wouldn’t be 💯 correct but no one feels anyone is a bot or using chatgpt any more

replying as a world miniapp builder - Biometrics: photo of the iris is hashed client side, world does have access to any biometrics. All they have access to is the inclusion proof in a merkle tree (using semaphore) - for the AI generated content, is it on socials or within the app? Imo people should answer in their native language & translation should be handled by the app (it’s the case for the world app) what I’ve liked about miniapps: 1. Distribution: first time it’s been solved in crypto 2. Reaching non crypto natives 3. Unique affordances: antisybil, funded wallets from the onset, free tx for humans what I’ve disliked about miniapps: - constraints around being a webview

They were the only project that could give out free tokens to every user. Whether opening the app to get free money converts remains to be seen. We enable the same thing with a purely software solution.
