Right now it's still possible for a human without bot assistance to control content. That's going to change in the next 10-20 years as bots become more and more sophisticated and less distinguishable from humans. I expect the Wikipedia of the future to be controlled by humans armed to the teeth with all kinds of bot-assistance.
At that point the paid editors gain an advantage because it's their day job, and they will have access to more training and resources than the nerds in their basements.
