Review aggregator Metacritic removed a review of Resident Evil Requiem from its site today after users determined that it was clearly written by AI. The “review,” published by British gaming site VideoGamer, is credited to a writer named “Brian Merrygold,” whose words and author photo bear telltale signs of artificial intelligence. The review’s score, a 9 out of 10, was indexed by Metacritic alongside over 100 others, which presumably were actually written by human beings. (We can confirm that our review was written by a real guy, with blood and fingers and everything.)
