Nexus Mods has made mandatory AI usage disclosures for all new mod uploads. The PC gaming repository requires authors to explicitly state whether artificial intelligence was used in their work. Site owner Victor Folmann noted that existing tags for AI-generated and AI-assisted content were insufficient for clear accessibility. This policy addresses consistent community concerns regarding transparency when creators incorporate machine learning tools into their projects.
The rule applies strictly to the submission process rather than altering how end users interact with existing files. Authors must tick a declaration box before publishing, ensuring the platform maintains a record of methodological choices without restricting specific tools. This measure clarifies the provenance of assets while leaving technical implementation details to individual creators.
- The requirement covers both fully AI-generated content and instances where AI assisted in creation.
- Existing tags remain available but are no longer optional for new submissions.
- Victor Folmann stated the change aims to make information more accessible to the community.
