Thanks! Yeah, that's really the most important question. There are a couple of answers.
Longer term, we're hoping that the best / most helpful / most genuine reviews are discovered and promoted by market forces on the platform, including:
Upvotes
Comments from other users
In the short term, we have our own moderation processes (and will be building more):
Automating plagiarism detection
Manually checking each review to make sure it meets our review guidelines (and will push this as far as it scales)
There are other technical solutions too that punish / disincentive spam and bad actors. For example the 'Web of Trust' system that Stacker News has implemented here!
In short, I think there's a whole host of things we need to be doing
