Apparently #steam now has a section for #games to show whether or not they are using #ai and in what capacity. This is taken from the section of Sins of a Solar Empire II
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. If you are feeding your own works into a model or something then I’m not going to go all pitchforks about it but using a voice model instead of a voiceactor is automatically out. AI generated artwork is also out. I just flat am not interested.
But something homemade for a particular purpose I can consider.
Yup, AI is conceptually very broad. You could argue pong has an AI, the other paddle acts on its own and makes decisions similarly to a human? Cows in Minecraft? CS bots?
You could also argue that Minecraft world generation isn’t too dissimilar from how image generators work. Both take a set of rules and then use math to generate an output.
I think I can accept generative AI (voice models/artwork) depending on the game. If a 1 person indie dev uses it, because they have no other options, fine. AAA game just trying to save a buck, nah.

They are gonna have to really specifically define what AI is.
Is it a LLM? manually coded agent? Some other machine learning?

@CameronDev for sure, this is extremely vague. I am just completely surprised they added it in the first place and at all.
