Use of Generative AI in KWN

In order to ensure the originality of works, protect copyright, and emphasize the importance of learning through the creative process itself, KWN does not permit the use of generative AI in the production of works.

1. Works submitted to the KWN contest must, in principle, be original creations based on the ideas and creativity of the participating children.
2. In the production of video works, the use of generative AI for creating or modifying content—including text generation, image generation, audio generation, and video generation—is not permitted.
3. Materials created using generative AI (including video, images, audio, narration, background music, and scripts) may not be used in whole or in part within the submitted works.
4. Submitted works must be created with active involvement by the children themselves throughout all stages of production, including planning, structuring, filming, editing, and audio production.
5. Any work found to have used generative AI will be deemed ineligible for judging.
