The inundation of AI-generated slop on various media platforms increasingly risks making them unusable. It's an issue affecting everything from Spotify to indie games platforms like Itch.io, making it harder for users to find quality content.
Itch.io's new AI Generation Disclosure will require asset page creators to tag their use of generative AI in their work to make it easier to filter out from search results.
The site's creator Leaf Corcoran emphasized that a grace period will allow asset creators to update their pages, after which untagged assets will not be eligible for indexing.
The move has been generally welcomed by indie developers, highlighting a proactive step towards maintaining the quality of content on platforms overwhelmed by AI-generated materials.
