Xbox says Copilot on consoles provides "coaching," but it actually talks to you like a baby with a controller: "It's a bit of a grind, but hey, you're already on Torment 4"

Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant is set to be launched on current-generation consoles later this year, but a tech demo suggests it may not be ready for the responsibility. The demo included examples from Forza Horizon 5, Sea of Thieves, and Diablo 4. Xbox's Gaming AI at Xbox's partner group product manager, Yevan Yadav, suggested that Copilot should be able to help players seeking "coaching to improve a skill that matters to them" and that more players should reach this threshold. However, the bot appears patronizing and vague, suggesting that it is incapable of learning basic gameplay mechanics. It is unclear if this will change before console launch.
