So irresponsible to give their users information. Then they can make… informed decisions!!! 😱
Worse, Steam even makes games disclose if they’re…gulp “Single-Player”.
What self-respecting gamer would play games designed for a single player? That just marks someone as antisocial. Or poor. It’s really mean to studios to have to disclose info like that about the content of their game.
If you truly think AI is so great, why don’t you want to disclose it?
This is why Steam has a “monopoly” by technicality. Steam doesn’t do anything to the competition, the competition just keeps making an objectively worse platform so bad that they end up killing themselves. Steam shouldn’t have to be accountable for that, its not Gabe’s fault the other CEOs are stupid.
His argument makes no sense. What he is saying is that game devs will fall behind competition if they have to disclose AI use… Which correctly implies that customers will not buy products in the AI category… Which means clients don’t want AI snuck into games. This means he would rather sell you games with AI against your consent than be transparent.
The problem he proposes only exists in his universe where AI is not disclosed versus on steam where those companies that use AI are now actually falling behind those that don’t.
Consumer choice really sucks when you’ve got a worse product.
“Company accused of putting sawdust in their baked goods furious at ingredient labelling standards; more at 11.”
Guess who’s using AI and ashamed of it?
Their initials are E.G.
