Roblox is played exclusively by children. Children have the taste nuance of insisting chicken nuggets with ketchup are the epitome of cuisine.

The IGF really dropped a grenade into the discussion heh. What happened was IGF clarified that "using AI" includes using it for coding "help" and research, which Big Walk had disclosed. This does not align with Steam who doesn't require disclosure of those particular uses, and in general using it for programming has been arbitrarily deemed OK by players and the industry.

Personally I think Steam should either get rid of the label or expand it to any usage because the carve-outs are arbitrary and pervasively widespread in use - I don't find it believable House House's developers are still almost entirely coding by hand and only leaning on AI for the hardest problems lmao. The stigma isn't sustainable once full disclosure is normal, and then games can be judged simply on their merit either they're good or bad.

Failing that it's hard to imagine what IGF looks like next year because everything currently in development will be using AI in some fashion, either they're going to have no candidates or no honest ones.
