If characters generate dialogue while the game is running, Steam classifies that as Live-Generated and asks what guardrails stop illegal output. Pre-Generated rules still apply.
Live-Generated: Any kind of content created with the help of AI tools while the game is running. In addition to following the same rules as Pre-Generated AI content, this comes with an additional requirement - in the Content Survey, you'll need to tell us what kind of guardrails you're putting on your AI to ensure it's not generating illegal content.
