Satya is not coming here to launch Xbox

If you are expecting his upcoming visit to Malaysia to finally bring good news to gamers who have been waiting for Xbox to be officially available in our market for more than two decades, well...unfortunately, that is not the reason why he is coming to Malaysia.

Instead, Satya’s visit mainly has to do with the hottest thing in tech at the moment: artificial intelligence (AI). Specifically, the lead man of Microsoft has been scheduled to deliver the opening keynote at the Microsoft Build: AI Day Kuala Lumpur on 20 March at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.

Meanwhile, Kuala Lumpur is the second stop in Satya’s Microsoft Build: AI Day tour across Southeast Asia. Before that, he will be in Jakarta on March 19 and after he is done with Kuala Lumpur, he will then make his way to Bangkok for another session on March 21.
