As the prevalence of bots and AI systems continues to increase, people may begin to lose trust in online interactions altogether.

So the premise seems to be based on a very flawed foundation
This assumes the level of competence never before seen in any government, ever. In other words, classic conspiracy theory, aka bullshit.
