Well shit…
It's not like they can really avoid it. AI assisted tools will become a standard in the future ("productivity has to go up" after all) and there's a good chance Valve already received some feedback from AAA publishers on that matter, since they'll be the main players utilizing such tech.
The good thing here is the exsitance of a disclaimer on store pages, as it will allow people to decide for themselves, and the ability to report content straight from in-game overlay.
Full on ban was never a realistic option.

I wouldn’t be surprised if, in just a few years time, pre-AI-era content of all kinds, not just games, ends up becoming cherished by people, to the point that entire fandoms and subcultures develop around preserving and promoting it.

This is no different than anything else, we naturally appreciate the skill it takes to create something entirely by hand, even if mass production is available.

Reminds me of how many early indie games relied on procedural generation but people got tired of it over time.

You mean like how people cherish hand drawn animation over digital? Cause except for some niche projects, the majority don’t.
