Microsoft Discontinues Copilot Mascot 'Mico' Amid App Consolidation

Microsoft has officially retired 'Mico', the AI mascot launched last October, as part of a broader strategy to streamline its Copilot consumer and business applications.

The company is merging its separate AI apps into a unified 'Super App' experience, aiming to simplify the user interface and improve workflow efficiency.

This move involves cutting several underperforming AI features to focus resources on core generative AI capabilities for enterprise and individual users.
