Rayark, a Taiwanese game maker known for the development of 'Cytus' and 'DEEMO', has spread information that it has introduced AI technology and fired a considerable number of artists, and Rayark is a hoax. I am in the process of announcing an official denial statement.

Specifically, an example of a tweet questioning Rayark's artwork is below. The content of the tweet was 'Do you have an art director at your company anymore?' There are features that are often seen in images generated by AI.

Also, Cbot (@Cbotme), the former director of Rayark's rhythm game 'Cytus2', said, 'I feel sick when I see all of our efforts and quality control turned into random AI. To be honest, I'm glad I left the company,' he tweeted.

I feel a little bit disgusting, seeing all the efforts and quality control we did turning into some shoddy ai bullshit.
To be honest I'm so glad I left the company.????
In response to these online discourses, Rayark issued a statement saying, ``Misinformation has been spread that AI technology was used in art works and the art staff was fired, but this is not true.'' .
Regarding the discussions about Rayark's use of AI, we would like to clarify the following:

The rumor that “Rayark is using AI technology in its artistic works and laying off its artists” is entirely false.

In a statement, Rayark said, 'Some content is based on distorted interpretations of previous statements and false assumptions that are not true.'
However, it does not deny the AI technology itself, it is clear that the research itself is progressing and that it is hiring personnel with AI expertise.
In response to the statement, Kotaku, a game news site, commented, 'Why increase the number of people with AI knowledge when you can hire more artists?This technology drives people crazy.'
