In a surprising turn of events, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has been appointed as an advisor to the US Federal Reserve for Productivity and Jobs, just days after overseeing a significant restructuring of Xbox that resulted in 3200 job losses. This move has raised eyebrows, given the irony of Sharma's new role focusing on employment.

The US Federal Reserve's task force aims to address employment issues and boost productivity, with Sharma set to play a key role in shaping its strategies. Her experience in the gaming industry, particularly in leading Xbox, is expected to bring a unique perspective to the task force.
