'Just deleted a couple terabytes of AI slop': Itch.io pushes back against the flood of AI on its storefront

Indie-oriented digital storefront Itch.io is beginning to push back against the rising flood of AI, announcing on social media that it's "deleted a couple terabytes of AI slop" and made it easier for users to filter out games made with generative AI. A few days after Valve admitted that Steam has a problem with AI slop and game cloning , Itch.io chimed in to say it's experiencing something very similar: The number of game pages being created every day on the storefront has doubled over the past two months .
