Gross.
Microsoft has the perfect solution. They don’t know what problem the solution solves, but they’re gonna shoehorn it into everything they can think of until they find one.
It’s better than having to open Edge Browser and use websites that are infested with advertising. Seriously, having ai answer questions about a game, while in the game, is going to replace search for some of us. I’d definitely use it rather than a browser or having to switch to my pathetic android phone. Most modern games are complicated and the player needs the browser open all the time to get tips and little pieces of info.
Why?
Because Xbox is dead, Microsoft got rid of its leaders, and replaced them with the former VP in charge of AI.

I can’t wait to hear all the screaming about how this ran a perma-death character off a cliff.
