At a minimum, a photography contest should only allow photos - the output of a physical camera.

There is a big distance between filters which tweak an existing image and generating an image from nothing.

Not at all... Stable Diffusion can do extremely subtle alterations. Simple things like hiding ISO noise in an image, or in a single spot.

And its literally a continuum from "leave the image 99.9% unchanged" to "change 99.9% of the image"
