The less useful biometric identification gets, the more we seem to use it.
My bank sent out an a announcement that they will support voice identification, right after a news story went viral of a scammer using a voice cloning model to steal millions of dollars. They pretty quickly followed it up with an announcement that they are aware of cucumbers' concerns and that they will monitor changing technology, but will still support voice identification. What I read from that is that they signed a contract and will keep using the service until after one or more of their customers are exploited.
TIPS is moving from login.gov to id.me -- a private company being the identity authority for government services.
Login.gov is working on supporting this. Facial recognition is required for the level of identity assurance required by these agencies.
