Epic Games reportedly pivoting to "AI first" game development model

What the coverage shows

All three outlets frame the story as a reported delay of Epic’s Disney shooter tied to a shift toward AI-heavy development. Tom’s Hardware stays closest to the headline, while Engadget says developers were apparently told to use AI for both code and asset creation. Ars Technica is the most explicit about the framing, calling it an “AI first” model and adding the only mention of “no more hand-written code” or AI-free art.
