Following 9,000 layoffs, a seemingly tone-deaf Xbox executive has recommended those impacted to turn to AI tools like Copilot for emotional clarity.

Matt Turnbull, an Executive Producer at Xbox Game Studios Publishing, recently made a LinkedIn post, emphasizing that he’d be “remiss in not trying to offer the best advice” he could to laid-off workers in these trying times. This “best” advice is to turn to AI assistants like Copilot and ChatGPT for emotional support and to reduce cognitive load.
