Microsoft has published new patents that discuss an Xbox system to let human or AI helpers temporarily take over gameplay for players.

Reddit.

The patent called “STATE MANAGEMENT FOR VIDEO GAME HELP SESSIONS” describes multiple examples where a pop-up might ask a player to let a helper take over the gameplay for a while.

Imagine if a user were struggling to find a rare gem in an RPG; if allowed, the helper would take control from the player. They would proceed to chat and guide the user through the process of acquiring the gem.

    Yeah I don’t get it. Just have a program write to a file with the finished game data, no need for an AI to waste cycles playing the game for you.
