Elon Musk is more at risk of losing his job to AI than artists are according to Take-Two's CEO: 'If AI were going to take anyone's job, wouldn't it take his job?'

Pcgamer.com and 2 more

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick quips that AI could pose a bigger threat to Elon Musk than to artists, highlighting Musk's vast means and AI familiarity as a potential first target for automation.
Zelnick frames AI as a productivity tool that can handle mundane tasks, allowing creators to focus on more ambitious work across Take-Two's studios.
Take-Two reportedly paused or restructured parts of its AI effort, with reports of layoffs including the head of AI amid shifting priorities.
Zelnick suggests Musk’s resources and relentless work pace make Musk a prime hypothetical AI target, not game developers or artists.
Discussion of AI in gaming is framed as enabling artists to pursue forward-looking work rather than replacing talent entirely.
Coverage situates Take-Two within a broader industry debate about AI’s role as a productivity aid rather than a wholesale job eliminator.
Musk’s GTA 6 remarks—that AI could generate the game—are referenced as a backdrop to Zelnick’s emphasis on AI as a tool, not a replacement for creative hits.
The reference frame ties Take-Two’s AI stance to broader industry discourse on how AI could assist creators without erasing artistic labor.
Take-Two leadership promotes a balanced approach: prioritize creativity, innovation, and efficiency when integrating AI into development.
GTA 6's development context—amid Musk's AI comments—frames AI as a factor in a high-stakes, high-profile game launch rather than a simple back-end tool.
