The comments are "remarkably pathetic," the writer said in response.

    Dude says he asked AI who one of his employees was instead of reaching out to HR

    Truly an example of trash humans failing upwards

    Karch also stated that he didn’t know who Sacco was until he consulted an AI chatbot, but nevertheless claimed that she was replaced by “someone more talented” and that he would retrospectively be “happy to replace her with AI” because AI is “programmed to be honest.”

    Here’s Karch’s full statement:

    "Stella who? I had to ask Claude because I have never spoken to her or seen her. We have already said we are using AI for certain parts of the game and will update the Steam page once we have finalized the feature set.

    Tbh that sounds totally like a rant by someone caught in the act…

      " because AI is “programmed to be honest.”

      HAHAhA no. LLMs are programmed to give you the most likely answer according to their training data, not necessarily the truth. For an example look at how much Grok has been lobotomized to fit his daddy’s warped sense of reality.

    Dude sounds like a slightly more coherent Trump. Even included the obligatory “I don’t even know her” line.

    I’ve heard nothing but negative things about the gaming industry as of late. Does a majority of it stem from the industry being led by scumbag CEOs like this one?

      So much consolidation in the last decade means that the majority of the by AAA game devs are owned by like 2-3 companies at this point. It’s horrendous.

      Like Activision used to be the nicest publisher. Then it merged with Blizzard and Vivendi (who owned Bethesda), and then Microsoft just straight up bought them, and King (candy crush dev). And now MS wants almost nothing to do with games after doing fuck all with those acquisitions except laying people off and closing some of the studios.
