Not too bad.

Does this mean I can't talk to the hotties anymore? The very feature I bought the game for.

May 1st serves as a reminder to evaluate AI’s role in creating a fair and inclusive future, where technology benefits all... because its not woke enough. (welcome to politics on steam}

so it comes back May 1st? i'm confused at this, why ban it for 2 days? don't get me wrong i hope its true but just trying to understand.

It should say "'before" instead of "until". Just a typo. They confirmed this on the Discord.

just don't update? they cant take it away if you don't update to the next version.

oh that sucks, AI was funny

What was the AI doing anyway, just the voice + voicelines?

If that's the only reason you bought it just run AI chatting locally on PC through apps like Faraday (more character based), or Jan (more assistant based). 7B models are fast, lightweight and good at role-play. I recommend Kunoichi V2 7B as a good starting LLM as it's competent and a good overall uncensored model.

Do you maybe have plan to allow hotties to connect to local ai such is kobold or others?
I run local standalone koboldcpp_rocm, one exe file, it runs great on my amd RX7900XT
I can use any available chat model it can even generate images, I use sillytavern to connect TTS service and voice commands.

A.I. is future, why Valve, WHY...

R: The Steam rules force to update any software if you load it; before or later, but will be...ouch!

They're scared that people will use AI to simulate interactions with underage and are covering their asses from lawsuits. The lack of control devs have over users using ai is what freaks people out. In a sane world we'll eventually see policies that firmly place the usage of ai on the end user, not devs, opening up this kind of content again buttt... since when are people sane when it comes to sex?

You should really learn how to use your computer mate...... Letting some company tell you what version of a game you have to use. You really dont know how to prevent this?????? it takes about 2 seconds of research

I never got it to work but still sad you had to get rid of it. I'd like to get it to work. I was using a Quest to play Steam VR games. Dumb that Steam is banning AI generated adult content. So it sounds like you're possibly going to release it outside steam to get the AI feature. If so, would people who bought it in steam be able to get a free copy to whatever other platform it's put on?
