Saber Interactive CEO Matthew Karch has denied claims that the company replaced writers with AI for its upcoming game, Rideshare Stimulator. A former lead writer, Stella Sacco, alleged that she was replaced by ChatGPT midway through development and that AI was used for passenger voices. Karch stated that while an experimental free-ride mode will incorporate AI due to an infinite number of passengers, the game's core story was written by humans. Sacco countered that Saber's statements are contradictory, as admitting AI use in any capacity while denying writer replacement is disingenuous. AI
