It's scary how fast people take out their pitchforks when it comes to the AI debate in VRChat. I think the devs actually responded in a sensible way. They are listening and taking action. They are not doing nothing. Their interpretation of the numbers may be a bit questionable, but they understand the complexity of the problem and are acting in a careful way, which they should. The topic is inherently controversial. There is not one ideal solution that will not antagonize a big part of the user base. Let me ask you this: Does an extremely sophisticated world with huge amounts of human effort deserve a label if it has only 1% AI in it and be subject to the same hate that is currently going on in that debate? Also: If someone uses prefabs from the asset store, is that also bad because they didn't make 100% themselves? Whatever line you draw. It would always be blurry, people could simply lie about it, and it would end up heavily penalizing some honest creators that may not deserve it. Plus there has always been plenty of slop out there even without AI. User ratings may be an interesting compromise to better things. So why not give it a try first and then see what's next? One step at a time. This doesn't have to be the last step.
