Saying nothing about this person in particular, leadership does not require knowledge of the thing you're overseeing. It doesn't hurt, but it's not like Mr. Gamer himself Phil Spencer didn't oversee the crashing of the entire brand.

A lot can be said about Xbox and the state of the gaming industry writ large, but it's clear to me that Microsoft is done with Xbox as a physical platform. Given the state of the hardware market, there is probably little internal appetite to do something as resource intensive as a full console launch.

Thats fine, I got rid if all my Xbox hardware. I just hope they dont kill of masterpieces like AOE.

i bet she hasn't even played a single match of halo multiplayer. the xbox has fallen.

It's extra funny because the one job that could be pretty easily replaced by an LLM is CEO.

Let me guess, they picked her specifically so that when things crash and burn, the types will be so furious about the WAMENS that they won't even consider examining why microsoft is shitting the bed, and instead just blaming woke for it.

I mean, not to totally disregard your title, because you may absolutely be correct about that, the same is true of every other video game company CEO as with this one, I'm pretty certain.

I'm still not clear if she's an executive in charge of AI or an AI simulated executive. Neither would surprise me given Microsoft's direction at the moment. Has anybody counted her fingers?
