They dont really need to have lots of arts specialist for them to verify on what's AI arts or not.Just like the rest been saying above that they do have that criteria for them on what arts
will really be considered or be chosen.
Speaking of participating then never make yourself get discourage just because there are lots of good participants.You would'nt know if you are one of the chosen
winners but of course dont expect for something like that so that you wont get discouraged.
Its indeed lots of artist we do have here on this forum which you could really say that it is really tough for the said competition.
As the price goes higher from time to time, you can see a lot of participants. I have been participating since then and I didn’t miss any art contest, I can say that they fairly choose the winners and it’s really a good art where you can see humor and passion. There’s a lot of good and creative artist here, I know they wont hurt their reputation here by using any AI software, they know the rules and they will surely follow it. Looking at the thread right now, we can see a lot of reserve participants, I can’t wait to see their art work.
I don’t think there’s a need for them to comment reserve on that thread because it’s not a first come first serve basis, it will be based on their art work and as I can see on previous contest, those who put reserve most of them didn’t submit any artwork. Well, when it comes to that software I guess it’s already on the decision of the team, they won’t let any art to win that is not the work of the participants.
