I'm a lawyer whose practice involves privacy issues. My opinion is that identity itself is going to completely unreliable and impossible to verify within my lifetime. When your phone rings and you have absolutely no way of knowing whether the person on the other end is who they say they are, even if you know them well, and even if there is video, biometrics, etc.--that's when personal identity will be truly over. From there, it will progress quickly until even an in-person meeting will be hard to authenticate.
