ChatGPT employee’s vibecoded Old School RuneScape ripoff lived for three days before a legal takedown
A game called Elderwood, created by a ChatGPT employee, was taken down by Jagex after only three days of operation due to copyright infringement concerns. The game, which was an "AI vibecoded" ripoff of Old School RuneScape, was developed quickly and cheaply using AI tools. The swift shutdown was met with celebration by the RuneScape community.
