There is no real person behind every second activity on the Internet. The hordes of so-called bots are becoming increasingly threatening due to artificial intelligence. Sam Altman, who started the AI hype with ChatGPT, now claims to have found a recipe against the flood of bots. Trevor Traina, former US ambassador in Vienna, rolls out the so-called World ID and explains to the “Krone” how it works.
Machine-generated bots can be annoying: for example, the long-awaited music concert is just around the corner, but there are hundreds of thousands of people waiting in line to order tickets. The problem: most of them are not real people, but automatically generated programs that virtually order as many tickets as possible at once. In the future, technology should help prevent exactly such a scenario.
