Use of AI on CurseForge and Modrinth
As a modpack author, I often browse newly-updated and recently-released mods on CurseForge/Modrinth, keeping an eye out for anything interesting. It is because of this that I have noticed the extreme saturation of AI-generated images and denoscriptions plaguing these platforms. It is difficult for me to imagine someone spending effort on making a mod or modpack and then not writing a denoscription for it themself. As such, I usually pass up anything with an AI-generated image or denoscription because I assume it's low-effort.
Plenty of extremely popular mods use stock images as logos or have simple one-paragraph denoscriptions. I'm kind of wondering why there isn't the same sort of response to using generative AI as there is around a tool like MCreator, which I've seen widely disparaged as causing CurseForge to be flooded with dozens of poor-quality mods made by lazy people.
Personally, I'm really frustrated by this trend and find it to be rather unenjoyable to look through new releases. The few competent, interesting mods I find are drowned out by the legions of slop I have to deal with, especially since AI-generated denoscriptions almost never do a good job at actually telling me what the mod does (unless said mod is very simple). And since it's only getting more common, I'm wondering what other people's thoughts are on the constant AI spam on every platform. I find it unbearable but I'm curious as to whether I'm the only person browsing by Recently Updated.
