Nexus Mods Forces Mandatory AI Disclosures and Filters, Explains Why It Won't Ban AI Mods

Generative AI has taken over the modding scene, with modders mashing together existing games and using AI-assisted code to, for example, put the Nemesis system from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor into Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 . Nexus Mods, the biggest platform for mods on the internet, has reacted by enforcing mandatory disclosure for mods with AI-assisted code, and letting users filter AI-assisted mods out of their search criteria or preferences. "We are pro-human creativity," Nexus Mods co-owner Victor 'Foledinho' Folmann said in a blog post , before further explaining why the site won’t outright ban AI mods entirely.
