The potential partnership comes amid increased regulatory scrutiny for both companies.
OpenAI, an artificial intelligence company co-founded and helmed by Sam Altman, is reportedly in partnership talks with Tools For Humanity’s Worldcoin, a cryptocurrency-based universal basic income and identity verification firm also co-founded by Sam Altman.
Bloomberg recently reported that the two firms are in negotiations for a partnership that would see OpenAI providing AI solutions and services to Worldcoin with the possibility for further synergy down the road.
Any partnership between OpenAI and Worldcoin would almost certainly draw additional regulatory scrutiny given Altman’s status within both firms.
