The opportunity for abuse with a similar product is too big. Giving someone your voice and the address of your loved ones means they can potentially mock it with AI send anything any other time, including requests for money. The volume of abusers of seniors will only get bigger.

It's definitely an attack vector we'll be seeing more of. My bank uses voiceprints as a password, for example.

My bet is some of the big "we record this conversation for quality and training purposes" databases get stolen and deanonymised for a mass leak of millions of voiceprints.

I currently have a rule with my parents that only I'm allowed remote access to their computer of any kind. And if anyone else wants access they should ask me first. Maybe one day I'll have to add some "nuclear biscuit" pre-shared code cards to that.
