So why would they accept said AI-generated applicants?
If we are making a global system, then confirmation using some nation's ID can be done, with removing fakes found out later. Like with IRL nation states. Or "bring a friend and be responsible if they are a fake". Or both at the same time.
Would every participant get to see my government-issued ID?
One can elect a small group which will and will sign its connection to something intermediate. Then only they will.
How do we know if they're doing a good job without being able to review their work?
