Microsoft has added favicons to the links within Bing Chat / Copilot. Favicons should make the links beneath the AI-generated answer more clickable and noticeable to users.

I personally now see the favicons on all my tests within Bing Chat, now known as Copilot. I am not sure if this is a limited test or if this is fully rolled out.

It was first spotted by Shameem Adhikarath several days ago, he posted about it on X.

Here is what I see:

click for full size

I think those icons should help encourage more clicks but I also suspect those clicks are still super low.
