This article is talking about using retina scans for profit, but doesnt seem to describe any way for that to be possible. Who’s buying retinal scans of third world people?

Honestly, the article is a mess, but it talks about a real issue while failing to clearly establish that it is a real issue. They really should have discussed how this affects people in third world countries aside from the vague possibility of privacy invasion.
They focus on Sam Altman for the connection to OpenAI and its pop culture relevance, and then further drift from the topic to make it relevant to U.S. audiences by discussing U.S. matters. A mess of a ‘story.’
