Require content using generative AI to declare it
°sky
Content that uses generative AI should have to declare that it is being used, and should be able to be filtered out of search results and recommendations by the user.

I am sick of seeing terrible AI skyboxes and random slop on the walls.

Yeah, AI Disclosure is something that I imagine the devs will want to do, given how much this game is based on community.

This needs to be implemented ASAP. The longer it goes unchecked, the harder it will be to retroactively moderate the onslaught of low effort AI-generated environments and models (yes, this is a recent possibility, AI can generate 3D mesh now) that people will freely upload en-masse, and bloat out the platform more than it already is.
I, and just about everyone I know, have no ethical desire to encourage development of worlds or assets in this way, and we don't want to play the whole 'is it AI' guessing game either: a game we only have to play because most 'AI directors' aren't willingly forthright on their use of AI on their own, preferring to use deceptive and sneaky tactics to place themselves among the ranks of those who would instead spend entire days pouring their hard-earned skill, their hearts and souls into making a world from scratch.
The only people who seem convinced that learning a creative craft over the course of someone's life is comparable to learning how to direct AI to generate content, are the people using the latter methods, in a desperate bid for validation.
Requiring creators to admit when generative AI was used in the creation of a VRChat world/avatar solves two problems: it allows users who don't want to see it filter these worlds out of their recommendations, and it discourages users from bloating the worlds tab with soullessly generated slop worlds just to get attention. People will probably still try to circumvent it and leave that box unchecked. Usually it's pretty obvious when you're witnessing slop however, so giving us a way to report when this happens so moderation can be more effective and efficient, is so crucially important to this process that it should be considered an expected part of this request too.

I almost completely stopped browsing the in-client world tabs, it's just tragic

God yes please we need this. So tired of slop content and would love to have it filter out entirely. Content is art and AI has no place in art. Id love to see it banned off the platform entirely but being able to filter it out would be a good start.

As both someone who has spent time learning how to use LLMs, as well as tricked by a world with an AI thumbnail, I think it's massively important that we have this feature.
Not only should this be a feature, but users should be able to report content that is not labeled properly. Anyone that produces enough content without labeling it and it gets reported should be banned from the platform.

Yes, please. Please, please. I am so sick and tired of the same boring thumbnails with the same fonts and color schemes. I do not get why people use it to begin with. It just makes their slop melt together with the other slop. It does not help it stand out or look "professional" or whatever they might be thinking. It looks cluttered, homogenized, and lacking in uniqueness.

Please, im so tired of seeing slop worlds. It is genuinely ruining my enjoyment of this place and is making me consider no longer supporting and cancelling my vrc+ due to the lack of the devs seeming to care. Vrchat just keeps getting worse and its so sad to see 😢

YouTube has an excellent solution that VRChat can copy quite easily, followed by an additional toggle to the existing content filter and moderation systems. Especially with Ferryman Collective's recent win at the Emmy's, it's so important now more than ever to distinguish between human-made and machine-made uploads to the platform.

Seconding lackofbindings' comment - this should absolutely be done, and also it needs to come with adding a corresponding report category to have any meaning.
