Gate News message, April 18 — Zoom has partnered with World, Sam Altman’s human ID verification company, to introduce a feature that detects whether video call participants are real people or AI deepfakes. The system matches a registered face image, a live scan, and a video frame during calls to verify identity.
The partnership comes amid rising deepfake fraud on video platforms. In 2024, engineering firm Arup suffered a $25 million loss after an employee authorized wire transfers during a fraudulent call with AI-generated colleagues, including the company’s CFO.
Zoom hosts can require verification in a waiting room, participants can request it during a call, and those who pass receive a Verified Human badge. World is expanding proof-of-human integrations beyond its consumer token model, with plans to integrate the verification feature into Tinder, DocuSign, and Concert Kit, a ticketing platform.
