So, who exactly is she? Well, externally, she’s the former VP of Product and Engineering at Meta, CEO of Instacart, and current board member for Coupang and Home Depot. She only recently came to Microsoft in 2024 as the President of CoreAI. Don’t worry, if you’re double-checking to see if any of that is related to gaming in some sort of way, let me save you the trouble; it’s not.
the fact that they picked a woman of color to be the new lead of xbox lmao. least obvious glass cliff
Soulless corps and political parties love to put women and especially women of color in positions of power when things go sour. They don‘t expect her to be there for long. She‘s essentially a scapegoat hire.
Interesting concept
Yeah, the situation is largely the same as when everyone was convinced xbow wouod quit making consoles (or worse with hardware prices now).
Cant see how this can go well.
I remember the Halo x Bonobo incident very clearly, the higher ups of that company are incredibly socially incompetent at best
To be fair, Sarah Bond was in a similar position and is a woman of color, too.
