Itch.io mass deletes AI games, adds filter for AI-assisted titles
Original: Itch mass deletes ‘AI slop’, lets users filter out any AI assisted games
Games marketplace Itch.io has deleted large numbers of titles made with generative AI, described by the site as 'AI slop', and introduced tools letting users filter out any games made with AI assistance. The move makes Itch one of the first game platforms to take visible action against AI-generated content, and the crackdown is drawing attention across the gaming industry.
Why now: Gamers and developers are debating platforms policing generative AI content as AI-made games proliferate.
