"My voice is my passport. Verify me."
I have to renew my passport every 10 years or so. How do I do that with my voice? I guess it's time to take some vocal lessons.

Vocal lessons are both a lot of fun and a lot of work. I haven't been using any voiceprint systems but I know most humans are unable to tell that my trained voice is the same physical person as my old voice. Would be curious to find out if an AI voiceprint system can discern whether it's the same or not.

Well met, fellow Uplinker!!
Biometrics are "what you are", not "what you know" or "what you have".
Voice fingeprinting is essentially useless because it is easily recorded and reproduced.
Smoke 40 cigarettes a day, your voice will be unrecognisable in no time
Reminds me of the Interrail data breach [https://stateofsurveillance.org/news/eurail-data-breach-3080...]
The fediverse take on that was "customers are advised to rotate their faces and birthdays."
