a QR code that updates at regular intervals, encoding an ever-changing signature
That’s brilliant. Any sci-fi authors in the crowd? The private key would be used to hash and sign a record of body movements including all one’s crazy hand gestures and every word spoken. Location could optionally be encoded as well. Some kind of algorithm would be devised so that some reasonable loss in fidelity of any video recording would still result in a valid signature. It wouldn’t be technically all that useful to display the signature as a QR code shown on a badge, but it’d be a fashionable thing to do and anyone who didn’t would be seen as slightly suspicious.
Key infrastructure would be tricky, but anonymous and pseudonymous keypairs could certainly be allowed for if we go with the assumption that instant biometric identification of everyone isn’t quite feasible for whatever reason. Maybe it’s just banned, punishable by exile to the orbital asteroid mining colonies.
All we need is for everyone (except the underclass) to get neural implants that record their every movement.
I was amazed at first with ChatGPT, outpainting, and the early stuff; it was fun making ‘paintings’ and playing with other imagery, but the main uses are taking such a dark turn I really think we’re going to regret this technology’s existence.

Can we start with Sam Altman please? Hah.
