Is it just a search filter or is there some kind of banner or notice on the game's store page? I've been playing The Finals a lot and I often see things saying they used GenAI for things in it but I can't tell what was made with AI or not. Maybe the announcer voices? The way they say "the magic number" is a bit wonky.

It's a section at the bottom of the steam store page:

Ah, just had to scroll lower. I only looked for the yellow banners and the sidebar.

Does that include AI generated code?

Code is also part of Steam's required AI disclosure form , so I think it should be filtered as well

Depending on how that's implemented, that's quite stupid, I use copilot a lot at work, it's really good at guessing what you want to put on the line once you start typing it, does that count as AI generated?

What if I want a simple sort function but don't want to google for the 50th time when I am supposed to return -1 and when 1.

Copilot is a great productivity tool not much else, what's next, let's disclose if you used and IDE instead of just the built in windows Notepad?

I think the point is that game development is a tough career and hard to get into. By using AI tools and making your work more efficient, you are reducing the demand for developers and therefore impacting people's careers.

I personally don't buy into it. I think AI is just a tool and it can be used well to streamline the process of making a game or it can help to pump out shovelware. I think filtering out games that use AI generated content is not the right solution but also think that people being informed and able to make their own choices is a positive thing in general.

AI generated content sure, AI generated code is a different thing, which is my point

[–] Aurenkin 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

You mean because it's not player facing?

No, because of what I said in my comment. copilot is just a productivity tool, nothing else, putting a disclaimer on it is akin to putting disclaimer of working with an IDE in my opinion
