Microsoft Files Patent for AI Helper That'll Play Games for You

Microsoft has filed a patent for an AI helper that can temporarily take over an Xbox session and play a game for you. This move comes after Sony filed a similar patent application for an AI PlayStation game assistant earlier this year.

The patent, which was spotted by Eurogamer, describes an AI system that can analyze a player's behavior and adjust the game's difficulty level accordingly. The AI can also make decisions on behalf of the player, such as choosing which items to use or which path to take.

This technology could potentially revolutionize the gaming industry, making it easier for players to enjoy games without having to constantly make decisions. However, it also raises concerns about the potential for AI to take over human roles in gaming.

Microsoft has not yet announced when this technology will be available, but the patent suggests that it is still in the early stages of development.
