I could see the first one, if it all takes place in a chatbox. Like, they have someone talk to you in chat for a few minutes to verify if you pass the turing test, then randomly once a month do it again.
Unfortunately they would have to pay people to do it so probably never happen. Although seeing them try to implement an LLM to try to tell if humans pass the Turing test would be kind of hilarious.
As we all know, they are completely full of shit here, they allow and encourage the majority of the bots on their platforms because it inflates their numbers.
As such any system they set up will not be trustworthy in this regard.
So instead of face scans or giving them my ID I have a video call with them and give them access to all my sensitive data? Am I missing something here?
I give it to a dozen different vendors a month. It’s sitting in probably 20 vendors on the web right now just waiting for me to pay with it. I tell it to people over the phone. Giving it as a small charge, verification is the least of my worries.
Speak to a customer service agent while they ask you a few timed-dated questions
Video chat with a customer service agent.
if it’s a real name account:
Small credit card charge to a card in your name.
provide a scan of a utility bill
provide a scan of a car title
All of Those are a deal breaker for me.
if all forms of verification are deal breakers, we either need to get laws made to make it unlawful, or we need to boycot services that require it.
The government is still going to do whatever it wants, and they already mishandle all your data.
Boycott, get around, defy, deny depose.
People forget that glass bottles and gasoline are (relatively) inexpensive
That’s why the stuck Iran, to close the straight and make gas more expensive ;)
I don’t think we have enough gumption to actually do it, but here’s to hoping.
Deny, defy, depose…

With the proper setup that would be acceptable.

An llm doing it is not acceptable I do not think.

all what sensitive data?
You don’t consider your credit card information sensitive data?
