Gboard is somehow still the best, the native android keyboard is hardly usable. I use it on GrapheneOS, but with network permissions removed. Haven't had an issue so far
Put simply, it is completely anonymous: users cannot be tracked. Third, the app works on any device – phone, tablet, computer, you name it. And, finally, it is fully open source – everyone can check the code.
would be awesome if it was true
I have been using GrapheneOS now for 8 month and its been quite a smooth ride. The biggest worry I had was flashing it onto a brand new Pixel phone I had just bought. Everything else works fine though. Currently using 3 (german) banking apps and I haven't had a single issue. Also still using Google apps like camera and maps. Also Gboard as the default GrapheneOS keyboard is a bit uncomfortable. Really nice that you can just remove the network permissions and it works like a charm
I find a that actually a disturbing assumption. I've learned a lot from reading other peoples code, seeing how they were thinking and spotting errors, so the good and the bad. I believe that in order to actually write good code its important to actually understand what is the context of the task which basically requires a lot of code reading, which is also sometimes quite enjoyable when you have competent authors. Reading code is an essential part of the game. If you cannot do that you'll just create huge balls of mud with or without ai usage.
Though using ai will speedrun the mud so yeah, there is an argument for not using it.
In the end it comes down to the actual implementation. The article states that the data stored is just a hash of the iris scan. From that hash accounts can be created that can be used to verify against that hash to make sure your are an actual person. According to the twitter post multiple accounts can be created and and used for verification independently, so indeed providing some privacy. So the question that remains is can the world id be used to discover these accounts, which would be bad. That question remains unanswered.
There is of course the point that you have to trust Sam Altman that the system works the way it is claimed and no actual biometric data is stored.
