Microsoft’s Copilot just got a face: an animated, expressive avatar called Mico that appears in voice interactions and aims to make AI on the PC feel more like a helpful companion than a cold tool.
Background / Overview
Microsoft’s Copilot Fall Release reframes the company’s consumer AI strategy...
