I disagree strongly here. The chatbot is the furthest thing from sufficient for the average consumer. Take the newly announced feature that groups your compromised passwords together and offers to agentically change them all for you. Really cool! Could you do that via a chatbot interface? Sure. Would the average consumer? No.

I doubt the ‘average consumer’ is even using a password manager, let alone going to change their password because of something so common place as it being compromised.
