Advent of Code 2023's new AI/LLM Policy
Maybe I'm a dinosaur but I'm utterly mystified by folks who are interested in making the leaderboard or even solving AoC puzzles with AI assistance. To me it feels like going to a 5k charity run, taking a motorcycle to the finish line, and parading your gold medal around. Like, who are you impressing? And are you even proud of yourself?I understand the appeal of using the best and fastest means when there are real-world stakes — taking a motorcycle is better than running for many transport scenarios. But the whole point of this is to have fun! Is it fun to hit  over and over?
