    From the article (though it doesn’t explicitly say that) and from people (read: idiots like Tim Sweeney) criticizing the policy. There is very real pressure from a certain group of shitbags for Steam to abandon the warning labels or at least not make them mandatory, which is fucked.

      Those aren’t real source, these are just someone idea. There is absolutely no indication to Valve dropping the requirement for Ai disclosure, and I don’t see any reason to why they would to. It’s one of the quality features of Steam and something others don’t do. It’s just transparency, not forcing anything else.

        They won’t drop it, but developers will stop disclosing it. There’s no benefit to doing so. Only downsides. It’s only a matter of time until AI is so ubiquitous that no one can tell who is and who isn’t using it.

          developers will stop disclosing it. There’s no benefit to doing so.

          That would be against the rules of the platform. They risk to get banned or the game being removed from the store.

            How would someone prove, definitively, that they used AI, if they don’t claim they did? I see no risk.

              Sometimes this comes out and can be proven. Not always. It’s still a risk. And yes, there will be liars out there, but at least there is a policy in place how to handle the situation.

                can be proven.

                I don’t believe it ever can be proven. It’s simply hearsay - unless someone was recording the developers machine during development and then release a screen recording. Otherwise it’s the developers word versus the accuser’s, with Valve having to act as arbiter. You let me know if that ever happens, please, because I sincerely believe the scenario is an ant-AI pipe dream. A veneer of protection.

                  Never read the news where game devs got caught of using Ai, then suddenly they sorry and said it will never happen again, removing the content?

                    Those were mistakes on the part of the developer. If they had never admitted it, then they never “got caught” since there’s no way to prove the accusation.
