A new Google Chrome extension called AI warning for Steam alerts users when a game page on the platform contains disclosures about generative artificial intelligence. The tool scans Steam product pages and highlights developer statements regarding AI usage, prompting visitors to review those details before buying.
Browser add-on intercepts storefront views to highlight developer statements about machine learning involvement
This tool helps PC players see how game developers use artificial intelligence when building their games. It operates as a browser overlay that intercepts standard Steam storefront views when it detects relevant content notices. Users see a blurred interface with a pop-up description explaining how the developer applied generative AI tools during development.
The extension functions by reading game page text for specific AI disclosure language. When it finds matching phrases, it triggers a full-page modal that obscures store content and presents the developer's official statement about machine learning involvement. Instead of changing how Steam works, it acts as a middle layer in your web browser to control what you see on game pages.
Google made this browser add-on freely available to everyone without any cost or regional limits mentioned so far. Players can easily find out if the games they play use artificial intelligence instead of wondering about it themselves.
