It doesn’t have to extinguish 99% of cheaters, hell, it doesn’t even need to extinguish cheating all together. It just has to make the problem manageable and invisible to players. That’s something server side can achieve. I’ll take the odd game with a cheater in if my entire PC isn’t ransom to some random company.
If cheaters exist but can only do it in a way that makes them look like a real player, then it doesn’t really effect the game anymore and the problem isn’t visible to players. You are never going to get rid of cheaters, even at LAN they have injected software in the past. It’s a deeper problem than we can solve with software.
Client-side AC has proven futile over and over again, even today with all the kernel AC. As I already said: most good cheats don’t even run on the same device anymore, completely circumventing any kernel (client side) anti-cheat anyway.
Why be allergic to trying something new? Something that isn’t invasive, a massive security threat or controlling of your own personal system.
It doesn’t have to extinguish 99% of cheaters, but if it affects 1% of legitimate players that’s a big problem. Good luck tuning your ML to have a less than 1% false positive rate while still doing anything.

Already exists with VACnet in the largest competitive FPS, Counter-Strike. And machine learning has grown massively in the last couple years, as you probably know with all the “AI” buzz.
Yes, scanning of it’s own game files to detect anything suspicious. It doesn’t scan every file on your computer, dictate what applications you can or can’t run and doesn’t install itself at the kernel level. I don’t have a problem with that at all.

And it’s still used together with client side cheat detection.

Cool but this started with you saying anti chest should be server side, not that it should not be kernel level.
