I would be a buyer at a low price if not for the social stigma. In a parallel universe where Elon released the cyber truck but kept his 2016 public image I'd but one for a low low price.
Fair and valid point. I don't know what they actually asked for. All I was saying is that any company of rockstars size cannot go "No AI" in any way that would satisfy a strict reading of the phrase.
Are they gonna turn CoPilot off for everyone? I'd say that would violate "No AI"
Ok let's unpack "No AI".
No AI in the software they use? No vendors that use AI? No AI for internal functions like HR?
I clearly stated that I had not read into the details but there is no way a major corporation can actually claim "No AI is in any of our processes" in 2026.
"No AI" is not going to happen in 2026 (I don't know how they actually phrased the demand and it depends on how you interpret "No AI" but 🤷.
"No Layoffs" may be more possible. It'd require rockstar to shift the positions that are more elastic to contractors. Fair and hopefully workable in the bargaining agreement.
"No Crunch" is interesting. I am not inside the game industry. But I have heard that Crunch is endemic in some companies cultures and pretty widespread across the industry. Curious how that one shakes our.
I run paperless at my house and it's given me back some sanity and some privacy. That's a rare combo in 2026. From one techie to another: thank you very much. My actual family thanks you haha.
This was probably Americans who were just watching Sweden play

Must have been an American unicorn
They're just gonna lay them off like those 50-100k workers they're trying to ditch right now.

Blackmail is illegal in the place that this news story occurred.
Is this a bet or something?
