it would be cool if it was judged by humans, blinded to whether the submissions were 0% ai, some ai, 100% ai, etc.
but it is judged by ai, which makes it much less cool in my opinion.
to demonstrate the absurdity, the second best submission right now has a note "Literally the Fable essay, but with one letter changed", ranking 10 pts higher than the Fable one.
I'm trying to figure out why I should have any interest at all in participating in this? I mean, other than the $1000, but there's really no clear criteria as to what would win that $1000 since AI is judging it.
It’s personal ad, basically. The author is trying to get a job as an evaluator somewhere and is hoping that putting 1000$ on the line will get them enough publicity to land them an interview/get a job somewhere.
Klara and the Sun is such a great book. Kazuo Ishiguro captured the intersection of technology and society in a way which can appeal to both to humanists and technologists. It was especially interesting to read his interpretation of partial sentience, learning and understanding the world from the lens of the artificial friends.

It is actually judged by a human at the end FYI.
"The top 5 submissions will be finalists, judged by hand."
Kind of like submitting resumes these days. AI winnows them down and the remaining few get passed to humans.
And who knows what ‘gems’ might have been skipped by the machine.
it still loses its luster, for me, knowing that the top 5 are ai-selected
I mean it's obvious that note is trolling
unless you have seen the submission, i have no idea how you could possibly know.
so, if you don't mind, what are the 'tells'? what "obvious" things did i miss?
> In today's world, what's the best way to get to a top-tier analytic essay? I'm curious to see.
AI generated content graded by AI for what goal exactly? I don't understand this contest at all.

Is it even legal to publish excerpts of books like this? Or does this fall under some kind of exemption/fair use clause?
Publishing an excerpt of a book for the purpose of critical commentary is very much fair use.
Ok, thanks!
As a general rule, if you are doing something "educational", fair use gives you very wide leelay, especially in the united states.
Are you publishing the rubric?
This is a beautiful and haunting book.
