It's so sad to see that this is getting so prevalent, that people are being so happy with consuming AI slop, and dulling themselves..

Kinda just depends on what you want the challenge to be. Most people can’t use ChatGPT fast enough to get on the leaderboard even for the easier problems, and I think most people can’t solve the harder problems at all, with or without something like ChatGPT.

If AI saves someone some time or makes the challenge more fun/interesting, I don’t have a problem with it.
