Unofficial GTA V WebAssembly Port Taken Down Hours After Launch
An experimental browser-based version of GTA V, created using AI and WebAssembly, was launched but was swiftly removed within hours. The project was shared by Wonder Interactive's Alex St. Louis, who indicated AI played a role in its development, but the site soon became inaccessible, replaced by an old food advertisement. Take-Two likely issued a takedown notice, as the game remains available through online archives.

- AI may accelerate game porting efforts.
- Copyright holders actively enforce IP rights online.
