After all, uploading a video of my face to Google’s servers doesn’t exactly scream “great idea.” And enabling selfie verification for your Google account in the age of AI deepfakes sounds counterintuitive.But after trying it and understanding how it actually works, I’ve changed my mind. This might be one of the most genuinely useful additions to account security Google has made in a while.
