The poster asked an AI assistant to make Windows "never send this bullshit again" after Xbox game ads kept popping up. The agent completed the task in 24 seconds: it disabled Xbox app notifications (equivalent to Settings → System → Notifications → Xbox), turned off the Xbox widget's notifications, and switched off Windows' own promo and suggestion pop-ups. The author verified afterward that all settings were saved. A neat demo of an AI agent directly configuring OS settings to kill everyday annoyances.
