Agreed, but that's a way easier line to defend than AI vs Human. The amount of subjectiveness human-ai discussion .... well we can't tell anymore.

You don't have to determine if it's an AI or not. If AI finds a real bug then it can get the bounty. If a human pays to make you read artisanal hand-crafted word salad then they don't get a refund. Real bugs get the bounty, imaginary bugs pay the fee.
