Hasselblad Disqualifies AI-Generated Entry From Masters 2026

Hasselblad caught and disqualified a generated image entry in Masters 2026. That's worth knowing, not because the disqualification is surprising, but because Hasselblad actually did something about it. Competition organisers enforcing authenticity rules with real consequences sets a precedent that matters if you're entering serious work into any major award this year. If you're a working photographer putting genuine craft into competition entries, this is the kind enforcement that protects your category.
