Valve quietly not publishing games that contain AI generated content if the submitters can't prove they own the rights to the assets the AI was trained on

Is this just AI art? Or if you had AI npcs or something like that would it also be blocked?

It's solely about legal issues if your AI has been trained on unlicensed data (Midjourney, Playground AI, etc.). We don't really have laws that handle these cases yet, so valve wants to err on the save side.

Everything else is still allowed. Even AI generated content is still allowed if it's trained on your own (or licensed) data.

And that's pretty clearly how it should be.

From their message:

contains art assets generated by artificial intelligence that appears to be relying on copyrighted material owned by third parties

It's nothing to do with ai, but rather the copyrighted assets it may be derived from.
