The competition received several hundred submissions and was supported by a CJBS Behavioural Small Research Grant. All participants were asked to write three short stories in 40 minutes, sometimes alone and sometimes with the assistance of artificial intelligence. This was the first time that AI was explicitly permitted. Congratulations to the winners and thank you to all who participated.
In the first edition of the competition, held in June 2022, a total of 58 prizes (in the form of Amazon gift cards) were awarded. This included 9 first prizes, 15 second prizes and 34 third prizes.
