Sam Altman Blockchain People And The Orb Mini
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want.
We think too much and feel too little.
More than machinery, we need humanity.
We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.
We know things are bad, worse than bad.
They're crazy.
Silence!
The great and powerful Oz knows why you have come.
You've got to say, "I'm a human being!" God damn it!
My life has value!
You have meddled with the primal forces of nature!
Don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think, or what to feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men with machine minds and machine hearts.
Yeah, thank you.
You're beautiful.
I love you.
Yes.
You're beautiful.
Thank you.
Ha-ha.
It's showtime.
It's time to buckle up for Making Sense of the Madness.
And who loves you and who do you love?
Hey everyone!
Everybody, Jason Bermas here, and it is time to talk about the latest iteration of the Sam Altman project via the Orb, Orb Mini, and WorldCoin slash WorldID, the Blockchain People Project, disguised as a way to verify if you are human.
If you've been watching the broadcast recently, you know that AI, deepfakes, etc., total AI-created individuals manipulated video is a hot topic here.
And it should be because we are so far down into the post-truth world.
We're literally in a place where no matter what we see and hear, If it is presented on a screen of some sort, and who knows, maybe even in real life, folks, holographic technology does exist.
We're not going down that rabbit hole today.
But if you see it on a screen, you have to question its authenticity out of the gates.
Out of the gates.
Is this real?
Has this been doctored?
Is this totally and completely...
AI generated.
Now, Sam Altman, who is somebody that we should really keep an eye on, obviously, because of OpenAI, what occurred with OpenAI and how he was able to be thrown out and get right back in, you know, that should tell you that there's a lot going on there.
You also have that whistleblower who, at first...
News said it was a suicide.
A lot of people suspicious.
Later on came out what?
That the parents, through an independent autopsy, claimed not one bullet but two bullets to the head.
Judge for yourself where that is.
Also, a Bilderberg attendee recently.
Remember, Bilderberg is really the entity that...
In my opinion, created the term post-truth world.
And just like everything that this predator class does, it is an inversion of reality.
They'll tell you that the post-truth world is guys like me who are feeding people like you misinformation or disinformation.
Right?
But, if you look at it, the post-truth world are created by these entities.
That have literally bent the knee and worshipped things like public relations, propaganda, whisper campaigns.
There's a great movie out there by the late Morgan Spurlock that just did not get anywhere near enough attention.
Most people obviously know Supersize Me.
They know they did a sequel that nobody watched.
They may know where in the world is Osama bin Laden.
But he did this documentary, because he did do little series and stuff, all about propaganda.
And one of the things that they would talk about is this halo around something, especially in the food industry.
This health halo.
In other words, the food...
Wasn't healthy at all, but you would point to certain, oh, this bun is made of this, and oh, crisp lettuce and delicious tomatoes, blah, blah, blah.
And put this health halo around it.
Palm was a good example of that, and in that film.
It's killing me right now that I can't think of, because it's the greatest film ever sold.
The greatest film ever sold.
Came to me.
Must watch.
Must watch.
And now, the new propaganda out there is this halo of safety.
Meanwhile, what?
Apple's paying out a pittance for spying on you accidentally or unintentionally through Surrey.
Give me a break.
I know.
How dare I?
How dare I not be that gullible?
Now, for those that are unaware of what WorldCoin is, what this project is with the Orb, there's been a rebranding.
It's still about digital identification.
Recently, within the last, I think it was like last two weeks, a little bit sooner than that, I think it was like 11 days ago, there was this conference where they showed the cell phone-like device that's less like the Loch Nahr in heavy metal and more like the device...
What people don't understand is they're coming full force in the United States.
This has been a global project of people giving up their biometric information.
And you'll see this is just a fancy camera.
And here's the same kind of technology that was really utilized and beta tested for the rest of the world in Iraq and Afghanistan when they'd go around and take a camera and take all those people's biometrics.
That this is that type of tech.
Well, guess what?
They just moved their new base operations to California on top of everything else.
They are ready to go full tech bro, full holly weird, full in your face.
And look, whether this project itself succeeds or not, the agenda pushes forward.
So we're going to hit a few of these articles.
Show you this stuff.
And I mean, no offense, there are other people that are sort of covering these issues.
Who's covering WorldCoin and Sam Altman?
Who's covering the Orb?
That's why I need you to thumbs it up.
Subscribe, share, not just comment in the live stream, but make the comment down below.
Check out the alt platforms.
And above all, if you can financially support us over here, $5, $10, $15, big donors, means the world to us.
The BuyMeACoffMe, there's also the PayPal, there's also the crypto addresses, all in the description below.
I want to thank all those that have contributed over the years, the months, and even the past few days and weeks.
Folks, also give me a follow-over on X. Again, we kick and scream to try to, you know, get more followers and we lose followers most days.
That's why we got to keep at it.
Check out all the documentary films as well.
All right.
Sam Altman's WorldCoin startup is dropping the coin and doubling down on orbs.
The new eye-scanning device can confirm identities as a way to combat image fraud.
Now, there's this new puff piece.
Via NBC that we're going to show you with these Orbs.
I don't know that they display the Orb Mini, but then we're going to show you this individual proselytizing and showing a little PR piece for the Orb on top.
So we've got a couple of videos out there.
Crypto-based project WorldID launches Orb Mini device because it's not WorldCoin anymore.
It's WorldID is the new brand.
To end bot problems.
Meanwhile, they want your interactions track traced and databased on another level and put you on the blockchain with your biometrics.
They'll tell you it's all anonymous.
Don't worry.
Everything's gravy, baby.
And this is the new device.
This is going to be the video we show you of this and he's real happy about it.
Is the future of human identity this eye-scanning Altman crypto project?
I mean, it was already in the United States.
Now they're coming for you.
You're not going to need Jason Bermas in the next 6 to 12 months to tell you about this because it's going to start to be integrated into a lot of things.
You're going to be seeing it in a lot of places.
It'll be slow at first, but if they get their way, they will accelerate this on a mass level.
So, let's go to WorldID and their new U.S. home base of operations.
So this is our beautiful new flagship in West Hollywood.
It's stepping into the future.
This is the Orb.
It looks very cool, but it's basically just a fancy camera that's able to look at you and tell whether you're a real human or not.
You heard that right.
In a world of deepfakes and online bots snagging the best deals, this shiny chromed white ball or camera could help prove that you're a human.
That's the concept behind World, an open infrastructure co-founded by Sam Altman of OpenAI and architect of ChatGPT.
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.
Humans need to stay special and central without Sam Altman and biometric slavery.
Now, look, we are going to get a lot of, we're already seeing a ton of AI slop, as it's called.
You know, whether it be AI-driven and written content, whether it be, look, I utilize it for thumbnails, absolutely 100%.
In fact, let me break down what I did with this thumbnail in AI.
The actual photograph was cropped much more, that's in the background, and so...
I used a couple of buttons in Photoshop to develop the backdrop.
And that's about it.
I mean, I didn't heavily use AI on that thumbnail.
But at the same time, I have utilized it, for instance, in the Siri thumbnail.
That is a completely AI-generated image based on an image that I searched and fed into the engine.
Now, is it the greatest thing?
No.
But I'm using it as a tool.
And I'm not incorporating my biometric footprint in it constantly.
Let's continue.
Not only does it look like that, it literally says tools for humanity.
In the soul-sucking eyeball of the orb.
Tools for humanity.
Remember when we talked about that inversion of reality earlier?
And I had my doubts, but I tried it.
You first have to download an app.
It'll take a picture of your face and your eyes.
Show the QR code.
So you just look at the golden dot.
Then the photo and eye scan.
Alright, so it's all set.
So now here on your phone, it's telling you the orb is right now verifying your humanity.
The data is then sent to your phone.
The idea is that it can be used on dating apps, video games, or when buying concert tickets, proving that it is in fact a person, not a machine.
Buying concert tickets.
Now look, there are plenty of automated bot problems and resellers and all that.
This is not going to fix that problem.
That's totally bullsnap.
But the real issue with concert and event tickets is that the paper ticket has gone away.
With the paper ticket, the physical ticket, it always, oh, but they want scanny, scanny, scanny now!
They don't want to let you buy anything without the scanny, scanny, scanny.
It's wild.
AI is amazing, right?
We now get to do many things that we couldn't do before.
But one of the problems is that when everything can be faked, we don't know who and what to trust.
More than 12 million people have already done this.
And I'm one of these people that I just get so frustrated with passwords all the time.
I have like a zillion passwords.
If I could do it just once, my face, I'm done.
And in exchange...
It's convenient!
Oh, look at all the identification, I mean...
This is the puff piece of puff pieces.
I could claim my money.
Those of us who do it get paid in a cryptocurrency called WorldCoin.
Money!
It's worth $35.17.
And it goes up and down depending on how people do it.
In the future, Tools for Humanity hopes to charge a small fee to the website or companies that use it to verify their customers.
But right now, it's not making any money.
Another possible roadblock, privacy concerns.
And so what's really going to be key is how is that data held?
How is it stored?
How is it transferred?
Is it deleted immediately?
World says that anyone who does this, including me, can delete the information at any point.
Just like the Zuck.
You're in control of your information.
Isn't that the talking point of all these losers and liars?
It's not just Zuck.
Right?
We've played the minions at the World Economic Forum.
You're in charge of your information and your data.
You can delete it anytime.
You can share whatever you like.
Bull snap.
Bull snap.
Let's thumbs this up.
Subscribe and share as we continue.
And again, folks, please comment down below, not just in the live stream.
Okay, what is up?
The privacy aspect of it, I know they mentioned that they deleted off their platform, but it's always going to be like something to wonder about.
And governments in some countries where it's ruled out have already banned or imposed fines on the tech, saying it runs afoul of local data privacy and currency regulations.
On Monday, a court in Kenya giving world seven days to delete the biometric data gathered from its citizens.
Tools for Humanity says it's engaging with regulators worldwide and is working through the challenges and will keep building.
Listen, I will give them credit that they just reported on the fact that they've got to wipe that data because the Africans are getting hip to it.
But as soon as you get a corrupt politician in the right place there, they'll go back.
And they just glossed over that, didn't they?
And we're working through the challenges of creating blockchain people, which, by the way, when you look at the International Monetary Fund and the Davos crowd, okay, they've got videos.
I'm running refugee camps via the blockchain, via this same technology.
Again, they like to beta test it.
Right now, this is in alpha globally.
It's like the alpha product, but they want to make it the mainstay.
And here's the deal.
So many people are hung up on the idea that it has to be profitable out of the gates.
Was Amazon profitable out of the gates?
Not even close.
Not even close.
But when it's on the agenda, when it can be subsidized, when it can be pushed forward via the military-industrial complex and its tools, oh baby, boy will it be.
Adding, pioneering technologies always face regulatory scrutiny.
It's part of meaningful innovation.
At the end of the day, you only have two eyes and one face, so we have to make sure we protect that.
But the startup claims we might just need it because the future isn't just knocking, it's staring us down.
And Camila Bernal joins us now from Los Angeles.
Camila, I saw the different countries in your piece where this has been rolled out.
Other than L.A. where you tried it out, where else in the United States can people try this?
Yeah, so SF opened last week.
You saw LA.
And then Miami opens up actually tomorrow.
Then they're going to have stores in Atlanta and Nashville and Austin.
But the idea is to have these cameras be sort of ATM machines.
You can go up to them in stores or anywhere where they are and just show up and identify yourself.
And by the way, let me just say this.
You notice like they're trying to go to the influential areas first, not by mistake.
And in the United States, you could have gone already to New York City under the World Trade Center.
You went on the escalator and it was there.
We showed that video.
As a human, Allison.
So once people have scanned and given this new form of ID, what can they do with it on World's app?
Yeah, so if you want to play a video game and you want to know that you're playing against a human, you can verify yourself through the app.
If, for example, at some point Taylor Swift wants to make sure that it's all her fans and not bots that are trying to buy her concert tickets, then they could use the technology.
Bull!
Bull!
That's not going to happen.
That's not going to happen.
And if that does start to happen...
Like, they use that and it does start to happen.
That's a trick.
And that'll get weeded out quick.
That's a trick to get people on board.
Okay?
Now, I'm just going to stop that there.
And what I want to do is we're going to jump in about 15 and a half minutes.
Okay?
15 and a half minutes or so into this presentation of the Orb Mini.
All right?
And the gentleman you saw with the glasses.
So here we go.
Community operator, you've reserved your very own orb, or maybe you received one at the last event.
Those deliveries will begin shipping later this summer.
applause So if you just take a look back over the past couple of years to the evolution of the orb and how it started, the very first prototype you can see up here on the left.
And the one that we're just starting production on, you can see on the right.
Some things haven't quite changed.
The scale of the orb largely has remained the same.
The iconic spherical shape also the same.
And even though the orb today is capable of well over 100 million verifications, there are billions of people.
And so how can we scale orbs to billions of people?
We had an idea that I'd love to share with you.
Put orbs in the hands of the people.
*music*
*applause*
So introducing Orb Mini, the first truly mobile orb.
Look at this Steve Jobs wannabe.
The orb is coming.
It's not really even coming.
It's here.
It's in Hollyweird.
It's coming to a hipster place near you.
And unfortunately, again, I think that within the next year or so, six months to a year, you're not going to need Jason Bermas to tell you about it.
You're not.
It's going to start being implemented.
And if this isn't the one that makes it, there may be competitors.
They're trying to move you into not just a purely digital arena via currencies, but put you on a blockchain to lock you in to that very social credit score that you already have, whether you know it or not.
Folks, You know the drill for me.
It's not about left or right.
It's always about right and wrong.
I need your support now.
More than ever, $5, $10, $15, big donors.
Please, please, please consider supporting Jason Bermas and true independent journalism.
Go give me a follow on X. Go check out some of the other stories that you're not going to see anywhere else.
And I might not even cover other than right here.
Like the meth raccoon.
You can't make this up.
I mean, if you're looking for...
Just a fun little story.
And, you know, again, not satire, not artificial intelligence.
This is police cam footage of a woman's car who's clearly a meth addict and a raccoon in her car handling the meth pipe.
I can't make good times all around.
Check out the documentary films.
They are free.
Once again, I love you guys.
