I have nothing against AI myself, but it significantly changed how hackathons work.

One prominent example I won't name, I had attended over a couple years. Coincidentally,the timing overlapped with pre-LLM boom and post-LLM boom. My first edition had zero usage of LLMs, the last had practically 100%, the rules were accommodated. The teams were no longer required to present a working example, a literal figma concept and a cool slideshow were more than enough.
