Saber CEO Karch Calls Portal Writer an 'Unsuccessful' Critic After 26-Minute AI Dispute Video
1 articles · Updated · PC Gamer · Aug 15
Summary
Matthew Karch publicly reignited Saber's AI controversy by using a LinkedIn post to deride Chet Faliszek as an "unsuccessful writer," pointing to Faliszek's 26-minute YouTube critique of his conduct.
The jab came the same day Stella Sacco said Karch had privately apologized "unreservedly" for earlier press comments about her work and firing, briefly suggesting the dispute was cooling.
Karch's post also defended his broader stance on generative AI in games and argued conflicts should be handled "human-to-human," even as he escalated the fight by identifying Faliszek's video.
The dispute began after Sacco said she was fired from Rideshare Stimulator and her work was taken over by an LLM; Saber acknowledged AI use in the game but denied replacing writers wholesale.
