During this year's Wikimania scholarship review process, reviewers noticed that some applications used artificial intelligence (e.g. ChatGPT) to answer scholarship questions.

This raises many questions:
Is it acceptable to use AI to answer these questions? Where do we draw the line for using it? Are AI-generated response considered to be genuine? Why do the applicants think they need to use this tool? Will it create an arms race between those who use and those who don't? Will it create an uneven playing field between applicants who can afford to pay to use paid-version of AI and those who cannot pay and have to use the free version?

In this panel discussion, we have representatives who reviewed scholarships from different regions to share their thoughts on the use of AI tools to answer Wikimania scholarship questions.
