Generative AI advances identity document forgery, detection lags

A new survey paper published on arXiv details the evolving landscape of identity document forgery, highlighting how generative AI has significantly advanced the capabilities for creating high-fidelity forged documents. The paper categorizes these threats into physical presentation attacks, digital injection attacks, and fully generative synthesis, noting a persistent gap between current detection benchmarks and real-world operational challenges. Researchers identified a specific typographic failure mode called Script-Dependent Generative Instability (SDGI) in large multimodal models when processing non-Latin scripts, and found that even state-of-the-art models struggle with cross-domain generalization in zero-shot benchmarking.
