A human attacker would either target one particular victim with huge research effort or a large number of people with a broad unpersonal statement, an AI might do both large scale and personalized.

At least for now, quantum computers might break that encryption as it's only based on our technical inability to solve prime factorization problems for large numbers. Though either anonymity is gone or you just know that it's the same "entity" but not whether it is a bot or not.

Aug 2, 2023 at 1:41 comment added user64314 Nice answer. Apart from psychology (it's creepy), is there any real evidence to suggest that the inability to distinguish between a human and a Bot online is any more detrimental than being deceived by a human using a fake persona? That kind of criminal activity hasn't curtailed anonymity.

Aug 1, 2023 at 14:23 comment added Daniel Wagner "How would you do that? ...Social Security numbers?" If you trust the entity that issues Social Security numbers, but don't want to make something public that could be used to forge your identity, cryptography has got your back: let the SS-assigning entity also assign you a digital signature key. For an approach that requires less trust and less government cooperation (but perhaps gives less guarantees), check out Keybase, which is at its core about connecting "you" with an unforgeable identity.
