I think i was pretty clear in my original post.
Its about people doing the seemingly impossible with technology, not technology doing whats possible with technology. If you use AI, you did nothing but ask it, and i could never be impressed by that.
And how would you vote in the competitions at demoparties? By tokens used?
Most parties strictly forbid the use of AI in production, but im afraid some people aren't honest enough to abide to that rule.
why would you have to vote any differently based on which tools are used
It's about how much control over the tool and the output the artist has. A photocopy machine and a pencil are both tools that can be used to make a copy of a photo. The machine is much faster than the pencil and produce a very accurate result, but only the pencil version has artistic value. The resulting artifact artistic value is a token that represents the creation process.
Because building something with AI is not as impressive as building something without it.
sure but if everyone is using AI, wouldn't the bar also be raised for everyone? you can output more faster and the bar for impressive is much higher
I suppose it would be interesting to have a random split, half use AI half don't, judging is blind and see what the outcome is
