World of Warcraft: Forever Is Already Overrun with AI Slop

World of Warcraft: Forever, a re-imagining of the legendary MMO aimed at recapturing the discovery and wonder of 2004, launches Wednesday, but its subreddits are already overrun with AI-generated addons that rip off longtime developers' work. Warcraft Logs, a site made by Archon.gg that lets players track and share combat logs, is changing its API because of the influx of AI slop addons, according to Archon.gg and Warcraft Logs CEO Sildri Silentcrest, who said API use has shifted from mostly hobby developers to increasingly commercial projects that are supposed to ask for permission.
