Saber Interactive Acknowledges Undisclosed GenAI Use In New Game, Denies Replacing Lead Writer With ChatGPT
A former Lead Writer at Saber reiterated previous claims that she had been “replaced” with ChatGPT “midway through development” on the project.
![[Update: 13 August 2026: This Week in Videogames requested a follow-up comment from Saber Interactive, and received the following statement from Karch:
“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.
“Let me clarify that the entire story script, were it to win an award, would go to someone who can walk up on stage and receive it. It was always our intention to reveal this until Stella violated her confidentiality clause and revealed this before we were ready.
“We look at our use of AI in this particular game, which will be a lower priced title, as a plus for consumers,” he said.
“As far as Stella is concerned, she was replaced by someone more talented and terminated for a variety of reasons a few months later. From what I can gather she enjoys controversy even more than I do. I would frankly in retrospect have been happy to replace her with AI. At least we would be dealing with someone programmed to be honest.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jupvzthhxsac2mwtqwulknsk/bafkreic3oxektgebitz4fnl276ifxnasgyjwl26adicxig4lye2fnumcwy)
