Just as we have no way of knowing which of our editors are AIs who
have passed the Turing test, I doubt if they will be able to tell
which of their editors are humans who can pass a reverse Turing test.

Incidentally one of my friends who is in that line of work reckoned
that there probably isn't yet an AI that could pass the Turing test
sufficiently well to get through RFA. But I reckon there is an even
chance that we will need a policy such as
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:WereSpielChequers/AI_accounts before
the end of Wikipedia's second decade.
