Tech founder criticized for vibe coding game about shooting 'zombies' in San Francisco's poorest neighborhood

Pierre-Louis Biojout, founder of Y Combinator-backed AI startup NanoCorp, drew criticism from San Francisco residents and city leaders after publishing a web-based shooter set in the Tenderloin district. The game, Tenderloin Night Shift, had players shoot "zombies" that reportedly included a fentanyl addict and a Black security guard, and Biojout said he had made $300 from in-game ads. Biojout said he did not intend to depict shooting real people, and the game appears to have been removed from NanoCorp's website.
