Guidelines for PCV regarding AI in Challenge and Exhibition Photographs
A photographic image is defined “as being a captured image on a light-sensitive device (e.g. film camera, digital camera, smartphone, tablet, etc…) and recorded on media or in a digital format.
1. No text generated photos or parts of photos is allowed.
2. Removal of unwanted elements is allowed using generative fill.
3. Replacements are allowed providing your own photo is used (eg. sky replacements)
4. A new challenge category may be introduced to facilitate the use of AI if the need is warranted
5. These guidelines will be reviewed annually.
