“Xbox needs to move faster, deepen our connection with the community, and address friction for both players and developers,” she wrote, pointing to the changes within Xbox leadership. “Today, we promoted leaders who helped build Xbox, while also bringing in new voices to help push us forward. This balance is important as we get the business back on track.
“As part of this shift, you’ll see us begin to retire features that don’t align with where we’re headed. We will begin winding down Copilot on mobile and will stop development of Copilot on console.”
Very strange that they moved a bunch of AI executives into XBOX division, only to remove AI features, but you won’t hear complaints from me.
Its clearly not in demand anywhere but here we are.
Probably because they realize there is no demand or use for it, hopefully. Maybe, just maybe, we reached the point where it needs to justify its value and that the time spent integrating it is just not worth it. And last of all xbox is on its final leg, i think its detrimental that whatever the next step they take will have to be a win.
They have always known there is no demand for it. They don’t care. It’s all about line going up and deceiving investors in order to create unfathomable pay packages for CEOs.
The AI execs moving may just be them seeing the writing on the wall and abandoning that ship before it sinks.
