I think that a lot of software engineers are using LLMs and a lot of very popular tools are developed by, or are assisted by, LLMs. Is this not just going to be a thing going forward?

This feels akin to traditional artists getting angry at digital art winning competitions when that was a new concept.

We're simply in the early stages of a paradigm shift, no?

The issue we’re dealing with is that the tool is as likely to write confident sounding, well-written but completely wrong everything and if you don’t know the difference you might accidentally give it a gold medal.

Like a chainsaw: yes the tools are useful and will be used in the future, but we may not want to use chainsaws to carve up the turkey.

If the judge doesn't know the difference, why are they judging a competition, and also, why is the competition esteemed?

These are great questions
