itch.io扩大生成式AI披露并新增搜索过滤

Indie game site itch.io has expanded its generative AI disclosure filter. Eurogamer reports that AI-generated content continues to overwhelm Steam and other storefronts.

itch.io has expanded its AI disclosure filters, adding a "No AI" checkbox to its search page that hides games carrying a generative AI disclosure. Games made with generative AI must carry this disclosure to be listed on the platform, similar to Steam, though without an option to describe how extensively the tech was used. The change follows itch.io's disclosure that daily game page creation doubled over the past two months and its deletion of "a couple terabytes of AI slop."

itch.io said it will expand mandatory genAI disclosure beyond game assets to tabletop games, books, comics and soundtracks, and add a no-AI filter to search. The platform called its previous genAI moderation critically lacking and said daily game page creation doubled in the past two months. The author notes itch.io runs on a very small team and questions how such filtering will be enforced.
