Take-Two Interactive reportedly lays off AI team

6 months ago by Jeffool to c/gamedev

Former employee says decision was made following "shifting priorities from upper management"

I know there's a strong sentiment against generative AI, but recently Take Two's CEO spoke positively of AI tools, as is quoted in this article.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick discussed the firm's stance on AI with GamesIndustry.biz, clarifying that it is "embracing AI as we always have."

"I've been enthusiastic since the very beginning," said Zelnik. "This company's products have always been built with machine learning and artificial intelligence. We've actually always been a leader in the space, and right now we have hundreds of pilots and implementations across our company, including within our studios. And we're already seeing instances where generative AI tools are driving costs and time efficiencies."

So don't read too much into this yet. There's no certainty until there's clarification.
