Aaron Paul is accidentally turning on Xbox consoles around the world

Aaron Paul is powerful. He’s able to turn on Xbox consoles across the world without even being in the room.

The Breaking Bad star is the new spokesperson for XBox One consoles. Here’s the new commercial in case you haven’t seen it.

As you witnessed, the commercial includes Aaron Paul saying the phrase “Xbox On.” Here’s the issue: Xbox One consoles include Microsoft’s Kinect sensor, which works by constantly listening for voice commands. Aaron Paul’s command of Xbox On in the commercial is triggering game consoles all over the world.

I just had a really scary thought — what happens if Kinect hears the TV say “FIND GARY BUSEY!”?
