Feels disingenuous to list prizes for contests like UCSB Mind & Machine Intelligence Writing Contest or the Electronic Literature Organization, where the whole point is to have machine-assisted stories.

That’s like saying “my toddler won a national art competition” and then finding out the contest only allowed entrants by toddlers. Or like when someone bragged about their vibe-coded game making $25K, and it turns out they just won the $25k prize in a game vibe-coding competition.

It’s meaningless data. Worse than meaningless, as it obscures the validity of what’s around it.

Yeah, or the one where only the cover was generated or the anthology where one page was AI-generated or the many cases where the only evidence of AI use was a Pangram score or the one that's just an illustrated edition of Frankenstein.

I agree such inclusions are misleading and probably shouldn't be included. But the page has plenty of instances that aren't like this, so this objection seems to also mostly obscure.
