I could see an AI based system ultimately winning this battle. Instead of everything needing to be human-input and human-crafted, the AI would be the "trusted mediator" of the system. It would be a front end to something like Epic, but the way it would work with the data would only be seen by it, not people. The programmers and IT people would tune the AI but you could almost think of it as an "expert" in the Epic-like system. It could be great! And then you run through the possiblity space and see how AI will destroy us, because once it works great, we'd start to rely on it and there would be no going back. We wouldn't even be capable of working with the lower layers.
