I don't agree. How is this not equivalent to the general authentication problem?
If you consider your impression from the video stream to be the "password" then there must be a second factor to confirm it. Signed audio/video streams is probably where we're headed. Devices used for real time communication will just require a TPM (many already have them).

That means that in order to call you their device will have to prove it's the actual stream from the actual camera module on their uniquely identified phone. Every component of a computer system will have cryptographic elements soon enough. There's no way around this if AI ever gets to that level.
- twodave 4y agoYou’re probably right. That pretty much also means the end of general unregulated computer use. Will we allow it? It’s going to be a sad day.
- hgomersall 4y agoI have an idea to implement a badge that encodes the audio into a super low bandwidth stream with signing, then displays that stream as part of the video. It would tie a video stream to an audio stream to a signature. If the video is faked, the audio won't match, if the audio is faked, the signature won't match. The idea is anyone can attach the badge and be sure people know it's not deep faked.
