Xbox Boss Signals Generative AI Future
Tap title to read story
Xbox leader Asha Sharma released a memo titled "25 years of Xbox" this afternoon, outlining Microsoft’s growth from a small startup to a multi‑thousand‑employee corporation. In the memo, Sharma noted that "too many ideas never become games" and that a "single person will soon be able to wield capabilities that once required entire nations." She suggested that a small team could build worlds that today demand hundreds of developers and hundreds of millions of dollars. The memo follows last month’s announcement of an Xbox Labs initiative that also hinted at generative AI. Sharma’s background in AI and Microsoft’s broader Copilot push underscore the company’s commitment to the technology, despite her earlier caution about bad AI.
