    As we continue our mission at Xbox to bring the joy and community of gaming to even more people, we remain committed to protecting players from disruptive online behavior, creating experiences that are safer and more inclusive, and continuing to be transparent about our efforts to keep the Xbox community safe. Our fifth Transparency Report highlights some of the ways we’re combining player-centric solutions with the responsible application of AI to continue amplifying our human expertise in the detection and prevention of unwanted behaviors on the platform, and ultimately, ensure we continue to balance and meet the needs of our growing gaming community.   Key highlights:   • We introduced a new approach to detect and intercept harmful messages between non-friends, contributing to a significant rise in disruptive content prevented. From January to June, a total of 19M pieces of Xbox Community Standards-violating content were prevented from reaching players across text, image, and video.    • Player reporting continues to be a critical component in our safety approach. In April, we took action on a surge of inauthentic accounts (1.7M cases, up from 320k in January) that were affecting players in the form of spam and advertising.   • We released two new AI tools built to support our moderation teams. So far, it has handled 1.2M cases and enabled the team to remove content affecting players 88 percent faster.    Read the full report here: https://xbx.lv/4eC5CtL

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is bringing huge enhancements to the series, including incredible new details to the on-the-ground experience.   Players are now able to exit their aircraft and see ground detail down to tiny stones and individual blades of grass, all modeled in 3D. That detail includes the impacts of takeoff, flight, and landing physics on the environment. If you land in a field, you might see indentations in the soil and dirt kicked up by your aircraft's landing gear. If you’re flying a helicopter, you could observe how the speed of the rotor impacts the intensity of a tree branch blowing.   “We can basically get every rock on Earth now; it’s unbelievable,” says Head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann. “We updated the aerial imagery for the entire world, and we set up a team of specialists that gather digital elevation maps from across the planet. The result of these last four years of work is that we now have an unprecedented level of ground detail.”   Congrats to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on an incredible new installment!
