You can't outsmart fake reviews though. At this point the only smart thing is assuming all reviews are fake.

It would be difficult, but it would fund itself. Just fine them enough and they’ll stop.

Yeah, reviews are relatively easy to fake with current technology. They're short and most of them follow a fairly limited set of formats. This isn't like generating hands where there are a ton of ways for an AI to give itself away. Not that most humans are very good at drawing hands.

I mean, just look at reddit. It's full of whole fake threads of bots talking to bots using copied comments and the only way you can guess it's a bot is by going through their history.
