This is 100% right, you nailed it.

The article above even mentions that Take Two’s stock dropped.

In the immediate wake of [Project Genie’s] announcement, the share prices of a handful of companies, including game engine maker Unity and Grand Theft Auto 6 publisher Take-Two Interactive, took a notable tumble.

This is an attempt to stop the slide for the benefit of their shareholders.

This is damage control talk. The response is what the caveman shareholders need to hear to make them stop panicking, so it really means nothing. OP’s article says he’s been skeptical about AI until it hit the stock price, so I assume this is just all lies.
