->''"This gets us to our final point. So now they're saying this new algorithm, this new... kind of machine learning model called [[ArtificalIntelligence AI]], that's going to transform every aspect of American life and the American economy.

They literally said, "Please don't talk to her". [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Having nothing to do with what you do for a living]], I think they just... I didn't think they cared for you, is what happened. They wouldn't let us do even that dumb thing we just did in the first act on AI. What is that sensitivity? Why are they so afraid to even have these conversations out in the public sphere?"''

->''"Creator/{{Ken|Pontac}} and I wrote a million drafts for each game. Each draft got a ton of character and story notes from Sega[=/=]Sonic Team. Every word we wrote, every character trait, and every story point was given to us by them or based on the Sonic Game Bible. We had very little say. Don't get me wrong. I loved my time with Sega, everyone was amazing. We just didn't have a lot of creative freedom, [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools which is understandable. It's their most important IP. They are rightfully protective of it. I would be too.]]"''
