Microsoft is removing the emotive yellow blob avatar, Mico, from Copilot's voice mode and relocating it to Learn Live.

Summary

Microsoft is removing its emotive yellow blob avatar, Mico, from the Copilot chatbot's voice mode less than a year after its launch. Originally introduced by Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman to give the chatbot an identity, Mico will now be moved to the Learn Live platform. This change aligns with Microsoft's plans to merge its Copilot and Microsoft 365 Copilot applications, following recent leadership restructuring within the company's AI division.
