I’m testing adding the No To AI icon in the Steam page for Robot Anomaly.
Saw a couple of streamers wondering if some of the images in the game were AI generated (they are not!)
Also saw chat wondering if voices in a different game were AI (they were not).
Sadly Steam don’t add a No AI disclaimer when the developer is NOT using AI. Only when they are.
No AI
NPCs in the game:
Yeah I mean this really gets to me. AI is a very fundamental part of games. But not creating games. At least not the LLM stuff we got nowadays.
A game without AI is just a sandbox for emergent mechanics and events by the players. Probably not what most would mean with a “no AI” sticker.
If I saw a “no AI” sticker on a steam page, I’d skip the game because I like to play singleplayer games and those almost always require various kinds of AI to actually be interesting at all.
I think calling the LLM stuff just generally AI makes things increasingly confusing.
Yeah it would be better to change it to genAI

I think you also got mixed up in terms.
No Generative AI Content would be the badge he needs.
Unless I’m misunderstanding things LLM, or large language model, would only apply to text.
Okay yeah, you got me there. I did mean generative AI in general here.
In theory, a really interesting (if it weren’t unethical) place for llms would be elder scrolls NPCs (not touching feasibility either). Give them a two sentence background and let the immoral magic do its work. Throw in some voice creation and you’ll be cooking with gas.
I mean not elder scrolls specifically, but LLM NPCs are in fact being experimented with. There’s a game called Suck Up, in which you play as a vampire with the goal of convincing LLM NPCs to let you into their home. I’ve seen some videos of DMs that as random experiments generated a town.
actually also sounds like modders have done, exactly that for skyrim
A game about evil robots without AI? 🤨
If these are truthful, I will always be looking for this badge.
Sadly people will lie and we cannot catch them once ai becomes too good.
Also what does it mean exactly? You didn’t use copilot to write the game? I don’t care about that. Too poorly defined. IMO it’s better to explicitly state “this game does not contain AI generated content” or whatever.
Agree
I honestly don’t care if devs use generative AI or not, but this sounds like a very interesting game.
Awesome! Keep up the good work!
Good idea!
Based
A+ would love to see more of it.
This game looks great, unfortunately tho, since I already shat myself looking at the trailer, I sure won’t be playing it
