Welcome to another episode of Yappin N Shxt!
In today's episode:
- Wedding efficiency! Paper invites or nah?
- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s (founder of ChatGPT) other co-founded venture, now rolling out stateside, is an orb that scans your eyeballs in exchange for cryptocurrency.
- The device, which creates a unique user ID for your scan, is meant to address a problem that Altman had a hand in creating: how to verify identities and confirm humanity in a world full of artificial intelligence.
- The project, called World (formerly Worldcoin)
- Social Security moving up in technology--allowed to use a digital version.
- The next thing SpaceX is trying to launch is its own municipality: Residents of the tiny coastal stretch the company uses for rocket sendoffs are voting today on whether to establish a city called Starbase, Texas.
- Turning the 1.45-square-mile area in South Texas—which doesn’t currently have much besides SpaceX launchpads, rocket assembly facilities, and employee housing—into a city would give Musk’s company more direct say in local decision-making
- What is a Labubu? The dolls were created in 2015 by Hong Kong-based artist Kasing Lung, who started manufacturing them exclusively with Chinese toy retailer Pop Mart in 2019. The toy’s popularity skyrocketed last year when K-pop star Lisa from Blackpink was seen carrying them
- Next Funko pop or something else? Beanie babies?
