## Key points

- Itch.io is expanding required AI disclosures to more creative categories.
- A “no AI” filter is planned for site search.
- Daily game page creation has doubled in two months.

## Summary

Itch.io will extend required generative AI disclosures beyond game assets to tabletop games, books, comics and soundtracks, and plans to add a search filter that hides projects labelled “no AI”. The changes respond to a sharp rise in uploads and the platform’s admission that its previous moderation of AI use was “critically lacking”.

The site said game pages created each day had doubled over the past two months, and that it had recently deleted several terabytes of AI-generated material. The article notes that disclosure and filtering do not amount to a ban, while stricter enforcement could be difficult for itch.io’s small team to verify at scale.
