Looks like it's not about the ethicalness of it, but they don't want to be caught in the legal crossfire. Sooner or later there will be a class action saying AI art models were generated from artists work, looks like valve just doesn't want to be in that fight

Adobe Firefly (AI art generator that's trained only off images Adobe owns) is going to be big soon. It's a shame that the concerns over AI and copyright lead to putting more money in the pockets of whichever companies gobble up the most stock images.
- I really like firefly so far. I use it to speed up my editing process in photoshop and it works really well to erase or replace unwanted things. We're not at a "make the background behind this person a forest" level of prompting, but it's pretty easy to do whatever you want to do.

Humans generate new art based on art they’ve previously seen. How’s AI any different?
- Well one you can prove the source of the image from and the other you really can't. Its BS but that is how it is and its clear Valve just doesn't want anything to do with a legal battle about it

So dont tell them about it. Problem solved

Oh ok now i want to look for games with ai content even more... Havend heard from any until now
- The ones with ai npcs are the most interesting right now but they are just tech demos
- I’ve seen mod, but not games yet.
