Let's have a short comparison:
- One guy spent an hour of his life doing a G problem in a Div2, get a WA in the #67 test case, waste another hour to fix it and get an Accepted.
- Another guy spent $20 for Gemini Pro and get an Accepted in 2 minutes.
Not only this affect the rankings, but also it makes honest participants feel demotivated, and make dishonest participants feel the "rating" becoming useless to them.
So, not just Codeforces but every other CP platforms, please find a way to fix this problem.
Btw, this morning while I was checking the submissions to hack, I found a guy named vid1606 have AI-alike variables in all of his submissions in the latest contest. So, thank you for reading the blog :)
Maybe add more anti-AI prompt in the problem statement?
I don't think that will work if the participant screenshot the statement...
