Wouldn't the use of VCs provide some level of assurance that the bad
actor isn't faking their credentials? As Adrian mentioned, there can
be reputation associated with those VCs.

Are you saying that there are no combination of verifiable credentials
that could be used to separate the bots, from the bad actors, from the
good actors with specific expertise?

Another interesting aspect here is that "the bots" are, probably
within the next decade, going to legitimately exceed the level of
expertise of 99.9% of the population on most subjects that could be
discussed in an online forum. I, for one, welcome our new robot troll
overlords. :P
