“Let’s partner with a bot maker to prevents bots. This is not about collecting and selling user data. No, not at all” 🙄😑
The Match Group-owned platform is partnering with World, the identity verification project by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, to introduce a system that uses iris scans to confirm a person is human.
🤮
You want some fuk? Give us you biometric data!
😏
Well that was a quick decision to delete my account
As soon as it mentioned eye scanning I assumed Sam Altman was involved. Didn’t he have that world coin thing where he scanned a bunch of eyes in impoverished countries?
IIRC altman stiffed the Brazillians who scanned their irises in his scam, never paid a dime
They give you the poison to sell you the cure.
In 6 months chatgpt 37.5 bots will now be able to recreate human irises
Also in Minority Report, they do the whole eye scanning thing.
What if I train a generative AI on thousands of images of iris’s and start generating fake ones?
Gee I wonder where one might get a database full of iris scans?
There’s gotta bee a good enough example set somewhere for research already
OpenAI is the one running this “verification”. That’s exactly what they’ll be doing with the data
Oh, people didn’t like the idea of giving their ID to third parties? Let’s move up to irreplaceable body parts. Next step: your fucking blood. Good luck declaring that one stolen when the database inevitably leaks.
That reminds me of my ex, she was willing to give her physical address and phone number to anyone who asked, but not her email address, because of security concerns.
Why are they so insistant of iris scans? What are they getting out of it?
Data to sell
make the AIs better by scanning thousands of human eyes lol
Because it’s “futuristic” and fascists are obsessed with that image
No, it is because it is a unique identifier for them to collect and sell.
You know it’s most likely not an either/or thing. It’s most likely both.
Fascists are very obsessed with image. It’s a big chunk of why the Nazis hired Hugo Voss to design the SS uniforms
Fair enough.
Could be unique like a fingerprint. Might be able to crosscheck this with other biometric data, like when a picture is taken at airports or border crossings.
Those fast track lines at the airport I recently read somewhere is supplied by a private entity, which means all those face scans are just added into a database for future surveillance.
You can say no to the face scan at those. The TSA agents don’t get paid enough to try to convince you otherwise and just say “okay.” The amount of people just willingly scanning their faces for whatever nefarious bullshit they want to scan faces for does not surprise me, but does cause me dismay

To keep people without eyes off their platform.
Haven’t used Tinder in a few years, but I guess I won’t be using it in the future. I’m not scanning my eye to use what is arguably the worst dating app.
Maybe it is finally time for open-source(ish) dating to make an impact!
(It won’t. I tried it a couple years back and it is a ghost town!)
It’s probably a Goldilocks zone thing where too few prevents it from working, and too many will inevitably be overrun by bots and scanners.
hey, you can’t make bot profiles! that’s our thing!
What stops a human running Tinder bot profiles from scanning their eyeball, getting the badge, and continuing on their merry way of running the bot?
If you can limit things to one bot per person, it will solve the problem. One bot per person is equivalent to traditional cat fishing.
I guess also they have an eye print that will identify the scammer if they’re ever caught.
I guess the have to be somewhat unique like a face.
Your iris is as unique as a fingerprint.
So… Not unique
It’s it easy to generate fake fingerprints though?
So what’s the dating scene like for bots anyway? What do they do on a first date? Do they show eachother their prompt?
They are scammers who try to manipulate you into buying worthless crypto, or blackmail you after you send “your girlfriend” intimate pictures or videos.
No thanks, I’m out
Oh I just watched a video on this the other day, apparently scammers (like the types who do romance scams, pretending to be a gorgeous guy, then taking all your money) are getting around this security function.
They upload all stolen pics of a gorgeous guy (probably exists for women versions too) then there’s one picture of them, because they have to have one pic of themselves to get the verification tick. But that one pic is obscured, like a face on a billboard or add on a poster on a street. And then tinder verifies the whole account, regardless of the other pics. I forget, it’s either bumble or hinge, I think it was bumble, deletes all the pics that don’t look like you, after verification, so those were sites that block that scam.
That’s an aside from ai profiles. There does need to be something to protect users from scammers. I couldn’t ever speak for what the best verification option is, myself.
I watched the video yesterday! Here are links for those interested:
Something very weird is happening on Tinder (YouTube)
Something very weird is happening on Tinder (Invidious mirror)
That was really well done. Where he went through and tested the verification process, to see how far he could push it. That bit was really eye opening.
This stuff is gonna fail hard
