    This is actually kind of interesting. This gamble is very likely to fail, EA could finally die, and its valuable IP sold off to companies that would actually make better use of them.

    The only wrinkle in this is that Trump’s son in law owns EA now, so if it does end up failing, they’ll probably find a way to get US tax payers to bail them out.

      More likely snatched up by VC to put them on (fuck) ICE or passed around to other AI companies until they’re really good and dead.
