I think there's a bit of confusion due to Microsoft's insane naming conventions. These consoles exist:
OP is talking about (2).
Technically there has been an exploit found:

But it might be only for (1) and it's not clear if there's a practical way to use it yet.
I've wondered about the names for years, never enough to search it. They really did a godawful job. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 works as does adding Super or whatever. Thanks for listing them out
Its worse.
I am expecting the next generation to be Xbox Series 2 X|S
It should be Xbox Parallel X|S
~Because electricity runs in series or parallel. /s~
Why do they suck so much at branding? I have no idea which is newer or more powerful. Just call it Copilot Games + number from now on.
They can use it bit it will take around 10 years or so
Ah, dang. Yeah I worded mine to mean the Series X because I thought they were talking about that. I forgot about the non Series X.
On that exploit, yeah I think it's just the first Xbox One. And given it's soldering and applying voltages right to the chip, and it's nowhere near developed to booting a different OS, it might as well be non-existent at this point
