โ„น๏ธ Hey all, there have been some complaints and posts through the weekend regarding false claims of AI usage. Our team has made a small statement. TL;DR AI slop sucks, we don't do it, and we appreciate those that inform us about wrongful usage.

โ„น๏ธ we've also made the decision to close the DLCC outdoor terrace areas early to help facilitate our closing, happening later today. You can continue to hang out around indoor spaces, then after 6 PM we'll focus folks to the area in front of the Main Events ballroom and lockers!
