An agent could open this bank account if you prefer to give it access to your social, passport, etc - entirely up to the individual's risk profile.

Things are going to get weird when the automatons become sophisticated enough to pull off identity theft while unsupervised.

Putting a brick on the gas pedal is obviously negligent. Whereas it is not so obvious that running a random script from github that spins up an agent with access to your home folder could lead to real world financial crimes.

Truly a strange world we're headed for.
