    Those disclosures will be shared on the Steam store pages for these games, which should help players who want to avoid certain types of AI content.

    I mean, this is better than most places.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if, in just a few years time, pre-AI-era content of all kinds, not just games, ends up becoming cherished by people, to the point that entire fandoms and subcultures develop around preserving and promoting it.

        This is no different than anything else, we naturally appreciate the skill it takes to create something entirely by hand, even if mass production is available.

          I feel like this is different. Even something mass produced using machinery used to be always designed by a human in the end.

            The games will still be designed by humans. Generative AI will only be used as a tool in the workflow for creating certain assets faster, or for creating certain kinds of interactivity on the fly. It’s not good enough to wholesale create large sets of matching assets, and despite what folks may think, it won’t be for a long time, if ever. Not to mention, people just don’t want that. People want art to have intentional meaning, not computer generated slop.

          Plenty of games still rely on procedural generation to different degrees. It’s a huge selling point in many cases, and in others, it’s a pillar of their genre.

        You mean like how people cherish hand drawn animation over digital? Cause except for some niche projects, the majority don’t.

          People shit on the Hobbit trilogy for the CGI compared to the live action of the LOTR trilogy. This stuff does happen.
