Sam Altman’s startup is hoping Jared Leto’s band will make you scan your eyeball

Jared Leto’s band, Thirty Seconds to Mars, is collaborating with Tools for Humanity—a startup co-founded by Sam Altman—to combat ticket scalping. The band is using the startup’s "Concert Kit" tool, which requires fans to verify their identity via a World ID, generated by scanning their irises and face with a device called an "orb." By ensuring ticket purchasers are verified humans, the technology aims to prevent automated bots from buying up inventory. While the system effectively blocked thousands of bot requests during a recent concert test case, the company maintains that using World ID remains an optional choice for fans.
