People don’t rely on AI because they’re worried about political correctness. That’s a pretty weak assumption.

That ignores the men with guns, who would probably say that their alert is very important. Take a look at the article. The issue is more complex.

The reason why the attack works without “biometrics or device unlock” is because it only works on passkeys that were issued without requiring user verification: > The Pass-ta-key attack is effective when the relying party does not strict
