Biometrics will become more important

One side effect of all the new AI developments is that biometrics will increase greatly in importance.

Captcha tests, for one thing, will become obsolete.  To prevent bots from flooding a web site, biometric tests will be a ready option.

Passwords also will seem too risky.  If you are using only a password to protect your relationships with your AIs, there will (over time) be too much value in there.  The AI will be involved in your work routines, and it will be suited for you and you alone.  You won’t want to risk it being harmed or destroyed or reprogrammed.  Biometrics will provide superior protection.

It also will be harder to protect your passwords, because users will be more vulnerable to written and even voiced scams, run by AI and passing various Turing tests.  Again, biometric entry tests are the natural alternative.

Here is the 2022 biometric year in review, there is much pending in the way of legislation.  I already use facial recognition to access my iPhone, for better or worse expect much more of this.
