Valve Says No More AI Slop on Steam

from Coding With Strangers · host Coding With Strangers

Hey Strangers,#valve #ai #gaming What is maladaptive daydreaming?Discourse is swirling around Steam's AI labelling after Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney doubled down on calling out the platform's handling of such assets. In response to someone claiming the category is unnecessary, an artist at Valve says it's crucial for allowing people to make informed purchases.Matt Workman, a cinematographer and motion capture specialist, posts on Twitter that "Steam and all digital marketplaces need to drop the 'Made with AI' label,” because he believes it's becoming meaningless. Ayi Sánchez, an artist who's contributed to Counter-Strike at Valve, disagrees."This is like saying food products shouldn't have their ingredients list. Consumers should have the information to decide if they want to buy something or not depending on its content," he says. "The only people afraid of this are the ones that know their product is low effort."**************************************************My other podcast https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************article links:https://www.gamesradar.com/games/valve-artist-says-thats-like-saying-food-products-shouldnt-have-their-ingredients-list-as-epics-tim-sweeney-and-more-call-on-steam-to-drop-the-made-with-ai-label/======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming, and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@codingwithstrangersTwitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcoderBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/strangestcoder.bsky.socialmerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.
