Nexus Mods mandates AI disclosure for game mods

Nexus Mods, a major platform for PC game modifications, is implementing new rules requiring mod authors to disclose the use of AI in their creations. The site will require explicit declarations for AI-generated or AI-assisted mods, including explanations of how AI was utilized. While not banning AI-generated content outright, Nexus Mods aims for transparency and will not use uploaded mods to train AI models. These policy changes, set to take effect in 60 days, also include measures to manage the influx of new mods and improve content visibility. AI
