    World launches iris-scan verification solution to prevent deepfakes in Zoom meetings

    World, co-founded by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, has launched the World ID identity verification solution, which can display a blue badge in Zoom meetings to prove that the other party is a real person rather than a deepfake. Users must first scan their iris with a football-sized Orb device, after which verification is completed by comparing it with encrypted Orb data via a smartphone camera and app. World ID offers three verification tiers: the lowest tier, Proof of Attributes, verifies identity using official documents; Proof of Presence requires a selfie; and the highest tier, Proof of Human, requires using the World App to compare biometric features against a selfie captured with the Orb. World says the protocol is based on open-source code, uses blockchain to achieve data decentralization and encryption, and that several banks and financial services institutions have already introduced the tool in their work environments.

    DeepSeek Opens Up Search and Fetch Search APIs, Charging $0.75 per Thousand Requests

    DeepSeek is opening its in-house search engine to external developers through two new APIs, Search and Fetch, which can retrieve real-time web search results and webpage body text. It charges $0.75 per 1,000 successful requests, requires no additional model calls, and can be used in applications powered by other vendors' models. Search returns ranked results with titles, URLs, snippets, and summaries, while Fetch returns the content of a single webpage in Markdown format; the company says the engine handles hundreds of millions of requests per day and its index contains hundreds of billions of webpages. The release coincides with a minor version update, DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017. The API documentation shows that each account is limited to 5 Search and 5 Fetch requests per second, a single search returns at most 50 results, and only requests that return results are billed.
