Voice cloning will get to the point where it's so good that there's no tech-savvy users who can detect it the way they can for email. Users will demand for protection to be added to their calls because you really can't live without it.
Expect encryption like RCS and WhatsApp to go away by popular demand, because when phishing gets too good, the only solution will be a service like Google recording all telephone calls.
Summary: It's a password manager on your phone. You sign into your password manager with something easy like biometrics or a PIN. Then all the 'real' passwords for sites are autogenerated and those are what's sent to sites when you log in.
What altenative would you like to see?

Here's the longer description of the same thing. It sure sounds more serious.
> When applying for certification of side collision tests for vehicles developed by Daihatsu for overseas markets (four models), the person in charge of conducting the tests, concerned that it would be problematic if the development and sales schedule was not met due to the failure of the certification tests, made manual modifications on the certified prototype vehicles that differed from those of mass-produced vehicles, such as cutting the back of the plastic front door trims to prevent sharp edges in the event of a collision, in order to ensure that the vehicles would pass the certification tests.
> Daihatsu has confirmed that in the side collision tests of the [Toyota Yaris, Perodua Axia, and Toyota Agya], the inside lining of the front seat door was improperly modified, and that there was a violation of the side collision test procedures and methods stipulated by regulations.
Inside lining of the front seat door? That doesn't sound very significant at all.
> In fact, he even said Intel could surpass the pace of Moore's Law at least until 2031 and has promoted "Super Moore's Law," a strategy to boost transistor count using 2.5D and 3D chip packaging technologies such as Foveros. Intel also often refers to this strategy as "Moore's Law 2.0,"
Regardless of transistors getting smaller, companies are outpacing Moore's law by making the CPU physically larger. They design the CPU so that it's composed of multiple chiplets. Since now there can be 7 chiplets that are closely connected, the # of transistors in one CPU is increasing faster than Moore's law. With the announcements about stacking CPU dies on top of each other in 3D, there will be even more chiplets in one CPU in the future.
> soon as it's out, a whole bunch of extremely privileged ML people will throw their hands up and say, "oh well, cats out of the bag."
