During GDC 2026, Microsoft and Xbox revealed Xbox Copilot, an AI-powered system designed to help players while gaming on Xbox consoles and Windows PCs. While the technology promises to provide guidance and tips in real time, it raises an important question: where is that information coming from?
Many of the answers Xbox Copilot will provide are likely pulled from guides created by gaming journalists and guide writers across the internet. Yet those creators may never see credit or compensation for the work that helped train these systems. Which is the concern that we’re, well, concerned about.
