I think that in every hackathon, in every game jam usage of AI, not "should", MUST be prohibited.
Imagine if someone decides to use doping during Olympics/other sports event. You will be mad because they won't be using their own skill to compete with others.
Even if we ignore the fact that all game jam entries made by AI or heavily AI assisted is nothing but a fucking slop it's just not fair to people who come here for a skill check, thing that game jams are for.

I scroll through Ludum Dare and I see so many sloppily made by something like Claude or ChatGPT or fucking Google Gemini entries, that are not even remotely interesting. It's like they just asked "hey can you make me a game for game jam" and then just copypasted the response itch.io and called it a day. Why? For what? It's a fucking game jam. No one's gonna pay them money. No one's gonna buy their game or add their other projects into wishlists.
