    I cannot imagine any business partnering with Krafton after it came out that their CEO used ChatGPT to come up with a plan on how to screw the Subnautica 2 devs out of their deserved bonus, against the advice of his legal team as the plan was wildly illegal.

      deserved bonus

      Contractually mandated bonus, but I wouldn’t call “more than all Unknown Worlds games have made combined” a deserved bonus.

      The CEO was an idiot for offering a quarter billion dollars extra for a simple milestone bonus on a game that almost certainly couldn’t earn more than a fraction of that, and that’s on top of everything else they paid for the studio. Them using ChatGPT as an advisor explains so much about their terrible legal and financial decisions.
