      The artist proved that right now, AI art cannot compete.

      If a horse wins an auto race, don’t give a prize to the #2 motorist.

          No, no, they’re right. I entered my motorcycle in a soapbox derby and won. Everyone agreed we should just light all the derby cars on fire and no soapbox derby cars should ever be made again.

        That’s not how sports work, even Motorsport has classes, often in the same race, e.g. of course LMP-3 or GT3 cannot compete with LMP-1, and the latter cannot compete with F1 (unless you’re whatever madlads made the 919 Evo at Porsche), but it’s still things people watch. Hell classic motorsport can be a ton of fun and there’s rally classes that drive in 100hp cars that make my overweight nerd heart flutter just watching them

          There have been years where a lower class is the overall winner in some endurance Motorsport races though. So your analogy is wrong. If a GT3 Porsche happens to be more efficient or if it’s a year with poor LMP teams, a lower class car can certainly win the overall victory.

          There will still be class victories, but that’s separate from an overall.

          Also classic car (historic racing) is totally awesome, the Goodwood Revival especially has done a really good job making racing exciting again. Their YouTube channel is really well done too.
