HSBC in the UK used to advertise Telephone banking with security just based on speech recognition. I wonder whether systems like that could be fooled by this?

- pjc50 4y agoMy employer had a project to look at phone unlocking with voice authentication. While we had a number of interesting techniques for anti-faking, the problem was the base error rate was about 1/10,000 even without adversarial considerations.

But that's just anecdata - the human voice doesn't carry a lot of unique information and on top of that it changes over time. In biometric identification the iris is king. 3D face scans are a distant second, fingerprints on the border of usefulness and the rest like gait, voice, keystrokes etc. get rediscovered every decade or so just to, again, not yield results.
