Researchers have trained AI to steal your password by listening to you type because why not?

You’re saying this bot can figure it out just by hearing me type “S!lverSuRf@r1985”?

(Neo – Not the Bee) Most of us go to really great lengths to ensure our passwords are complicated, secure and un-crackable.

But now they’re inventing robots that literally can just listen to us type and figure it out.

A team of UK researchers has trained a deep learning model to interpret keystrokes remotely based solely on audio.

By recording keystrokes to train the model, they were able to predict what was typed on the keyboard with up to 95% accuracy. This accuracy dropped to 93% when using Zoom to train the system. View article →
