If they bought the domains and fired the people it should be easy for someone else to start a new site using the available talent pool to quickly become a relevant name as well.
Me personally, I strongly dislike IGN because (other than all the common reasons) they force me to access a poorly translated version of their content when I'm perfectly capable of reading their originals in English, so even if they have an article I'm interested on, I can't easily access any decent version of it because or my geographic location.
I don't see much AI stuff on Google yet but most searches there now give me only video results for some reason, with no way to opt out of them and get text results. It DDG fails me I just give up now.
