Microsoft Brings Google Assistant Support To the Xbox One

Microsoft is enabling Google's Assistant to work with its Xbox One console. From a report: Much like the existing Alexa integration, Microsoft is allowing Google Assistant to launch games and apps, turn the console on and off, pause videos, and much more. You'll need to use the Google Assistant app for iOS or Android or a device like Google's Home with Assistant on it to control an Xbox One. Google Assistant won't run on the Xbox One itself; instead, it will receive commands from other devices running Assistant.

That's amazing!

Looks like nobody cares. I just came here for the mere pleasure of getting first post on a story that was posted almost 6 hours ago.

The story has almost fallen off the front page at this point, and yours is the only comment. Like you, my interest is meta, but I wonder what the lack of interest signifies. Perhaps that almost no Slashdot users have Xbox One.

Whoops. Now I have to confess that I don't even know (or care) what an Xbox One is. I think it's a Microsoft product and my personal policies are to use no Microsoft software or service unless I an coerced--and to complain about the duress whenever opportunity offers.
