He used AI to win a fine-arts competition. Was it cheating?

I wouldnt say "cheating" -- but yes, there should be a differentiation btwn AI and Human generated art and it should be clear which is which...

I saw a guy yesterday drawing an AMAZING drawing in his sketch book (like really amazing pencil drawing of a burned out tree stump, based on the fires here in California) and we started chatting...

I showed him my DALLE art that I was doing on my phone...

But this man had HUMAN SKILL - which is so diff from AI "prompt finesse"

So yeah, we should keep them separate in the same way we should keep trans folks separate in sports (just due to the balance of power)
