According to some unofficial explanations, the main reason is because the company's business strategy is undergoing some changes, specifically. The death of wsa and Google's non-cooperation have something to do with the project's unprofitability, while the company is switching everything to AI,Microsoft All to AI

WSA is a very useful feature that I utilize for reverse analysis, it's very convenient, very nice, it can run all architecture so libraries, the speed beats any other Android emulator, really, I like it too much, please don't stop it, thanks!

Always AI, AI, AI and AI. I'm both angry and sad. Microsoft is crazy and silly. And I never use the copilot and bing ai either!

LPFchan commented 3 months ago

this is just sad to see, every projects getting slashed by the names of AI. especially when there's nothing else quite like WSA out there in the market. :(

I sure hope they decide to pick up WSA again soon.

Microsoft is riding on the coattails of their partnership with OpenAI, having implemented various neutered aspects of ChatGPT into Bing, etc. This partnership/bundling of watered-down AI functionality into mediocre Microsoft products and services resulted in a year of market gains for Microsoft. Microsoft desperately seeks to sustain this financial windfall and has subsequently shifted focus and has restructured in an attempt to remain AI-centric but this run of good fortune is inevitably temporary. Microsoft possesses neither the capacity for innovation nor the foresight to independently stand and succeed.
