AI-Generated Artwork for Contests

Our team is paying close attention to a critical issue that has come up regarding contests, specifically the Rookie Awards. It has come to our attention that some participants may be inclined to use AI or ML algorithms to create their entries, which goes against the spirit of the competition. As a result, we have updated our rules to include the following clauses:

• All entries must be the original work of the entrant, created without the use of artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) algorithms.
• The contest organisers reserve the right to request additional information or documentation from entrants regarding the creation of their entries, including proof that no artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) algorithms were used.

As a team, it is critical that we pay close attention to this issue and implement these rules effectively. By doing so, we can ensure that our competitions remain a showcase for the best and brightest talent, and that our brand continues to be associated with creativity, innovation, and ethical conduct.
