Zelnick Jabs Musk: AI Won't Replace Game Creators

0:00It's April 21st. Welcome in. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News, where pop culture meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. Take two CEO Strauss Zonik just through some shade at Elon Musk, saying AI might come for the Tesla Boss' job first. This popped up at the Simifor World Economy Summit in 2026, right after Musk hinted that AI could whip up games like Grand Theft. Auto. Rockstar Games, Undertaker 2, makes GTA and Musk even joked that AI would guess what game you won without asking. Zonik pointed out Musk grinds 20 hours a day as the richest guy alive, so if AI is taking jobs, why not start there? He added that even with AI in every corner of his own work, he's busier than ever. It's a clever jab, questioning why Musk is still hustling so hard if machines are the future. Fans and gamers are buzzing about this back and forth, especially with GTA 6 on the horizon. The action adventure hit from Rockstar got pushed from May this year to November 19th, 2026.

1:05Musk's text to GTA Idea sparked debates on whether AI can really replace creative studios like Rockstar. Back in March 2026, Zonik hit back harder at Musk's AI game claims. He said, sure, AI helps crank out assets, but it won't make blockbuster hits on its own. That sets the stage for why Take A 2 isn't sweating the tech takeover just yet. This feud highlights the real tension between big tech dreams and game industry grit, and it'll be wild to watch how AI plays out as GTA 6 drops.
