When Is It Judo and When Is It Aikido?

The top aikido people all came out of judo, so sometimes it is difficult to tell the difference.

Well, often your opponent is giving you the force in judo, and so you do not have to supply your own.  Many judo people know this, and switch to aikido, giving up the competition side, and just work on the shibui of the perfect throw.
