If you watch the video, it's pretty obviously fake (and his colleagues notice this). But the concept is worrying when you extrapolate it to abuse of identity verification methods. Some KYC / ID verify companies will do something like have you connect to an agent for a quick chat where you hold up your license and verify who you are. This is ripe for abuse, and it's never been easier to open a fraudulent bank account online.

Huh, true... There's already demoes of real time deepfakes (researcher talking with face movements, video output the 3 most recent US presidents doing those face movements and saying what he's saying).

So, one needs to just steal enough of someone's voice and face data, e.g. from Zoom, and their driver's license...
