Summary
The World Press Photo competition, a prestigious photojournalism award, has established rules about the use of generative AI (software that creates images from text descriptions) to determine eligibility for entries. The 2026 winning photograph, "Separated by ICE" by Carol Guzy, had to comply with these AI-related rules, reflecting the competition's effort to define what qualifies as authentic photography in an era where AI-generated images are becoming common.
