Valve admits Steam has an AI slop and cloning problem, but says 'we don't want to be gatekeepers telling developers which tools they should or shouldn't use' (www.pcgamer.com)

One of the issues will be server space, I imagine. Where these agents are at right meow means a whole bunch of people can dump slop games at a rate we’ve never imagined.

I think they’ll have to find a way to weed out a lot and stay ahead of this.

A simple tag for users is nice bc some don’t want any part of it but it would also be a nice heads up for everyone.

People pay a $100 fee to list their game on steam. For most slop games the will probably cover storing them for the rest of time at the scale valve has. I don't think that'll have much impact.
