AI Use By Steam Genre

Steam tags overlap, so one game can count in multiple genres. Category columns prefer structured content analysis. Live AI uses structured where-AI-appears analysis.

Methodology

AI Transparency Index records products whose public Steam store pages include AI usage disclosure text. Structured scope is auto-classified from the raw disclosure and should be treated as an index aid, not a replacement for the source text.

Data collected with Scrapeer
