⚡️Take-Two has fired its head of AI, Luke Dicken, along with his team as part of a major AI-department reorg.

Most of the group reportedly came from Zynga (acquired in 2022 for $12.7B). Take-Two refuses to comment; CEO Strauss Zelnick has publicly criticised AI before, looks like a pullback on AI investment. WILD 🤨
