    Game platforms had shovelware issues before AI took off. Now it’s worse and they’re still not doing anything about it.

          Sorry. I’m just old enough to remember a time before Steam’s monopoly. And watching the generations of G*mers just accept and defend it, is rather annoying.

      Steam is working on it but how effective it will be remains to be seen

        They’ll only work on a solution as long as customers care. If they notice that AI content will make them money, they will drop it.

        Seems to me that Steam is embracing it rather than working on it. None of their discovery tools will ever be effective as long as they are built on the hopelessly flawed tag system.

    Last year, Tech Raptor found that around 500 of the nearly 3k games of October Next Fest games had AI disclosures, I can’t imagine it’ll be less this year and there’s no way way to filter them out.

      If they add a toggle, then game devs will stop putting AI disclosures. The only way is to tag them, and block those tags.
