Comment on The phrase "Pics or it didn't happen" is largely meaningless now that AI is a thing.

Biometrics should be usernames, not passwords. Fingerprints, irises, faces, vocal patterns, all of it, no matter how good it is, only identifies the person trying to enter/use something and is somewhat easy to steal without their knowledge.

If you want true security you still need to ask for a passcode that only the now-identified user will know.

And yes, it is still possible to intercept the passcode at the moment that the user interacts with the locking mechanism, but that is completely different from grabbing it when they’re randomly walking down the street, etc.
