Xbox unveils Copilot of Gaming as an AI sidekick for gamers
1 min read
Summary
Gaming CoPilot is an AI gaming sidekick being developed by Microsoft that will debut in preview on mobiles from April onwards.
The technology is similar to that used by Krafton, which included an AI companion in PUBG battle royale games.
Krafton’s demo included the AI assisting as a partner player and answering questions about the user’s gameplay.
Microsoft’s technology will allow gamers to discover AI companions, ask questions about controlling the game experience, and get feedback on their gameplay.
It works by reaching out to datacentres to fetch answers to queries, which may cause a delay.
This makes the technology most useful between matches or after a match has finished.
However, the information and recommendations given can be helpful, especially for new players.
