One more reason to never trust him...

Sam Altmans eyeball-scanning startup, Tools for Humanity, announced last week that a new product called Concert Kitdesigned to give verified humans a way to purchase concert ticketswould first roll out on Bruno Mars world tour of his latest studio album, The Romantic.
However, Bruno Mars Management and Live Nation, the producer for the Romantic Tour, told WIRED in a joint statement on Tuesday that the partnership does not exist, and that Tools for Humanity never even approached them about working together.
The confusion stemmed from a Tools for Humanity event April 17 in San Francisco, where chief product officer Tiago Sada said the company would be joining the Romantic Tour to not just provide access to tickets but also VIP experiences for verified humans.
The statement was reiterated in a blog post published by the company, which read: Concert Kit launches today and will roll out during the Bruno Mars World Tour featuring DJ Pee .Wee (aka Anderson .Paak), where verified humans will have exclusive access to VIP suite experiences at select stops.
