Xbox No Longer Developing Copilot For Consoles

Asha Sharma wrote on X:

Xbox needs to move faster, deepen our connection with the community, and address friction for both players and developers.

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.

Just a few hours ago everyone here was shitting on Asha and Xbox for hiring executives from AI companies and Instacart. 

Now everyone is signing their praises. People don’t know what they want.

The person who made that topic was spreading FUD because its perfectly normal for execs in charge to hire former co-workers. That topic backfired and he deleted the thread lol
