Where?

Inside Vision's head, worryingly.

What?

The Mind Stone was used to bring Vision to life, but more broadly it gives the user various mental capabilities. It increases intelligence, allows the person with it to control the minds of others, and project the user's consciousness to a higher plane of existence.

In Infinity War:

It's not fully clear whether Thanos gets this one or not but, if he does, it won't be good news for the Vision. In the trailer we see one of Thanos' henchmen - quite likely his right-hand man Corvus Glaive - attempting to remove the Mind Stone from Vision's head, and it looks like a rather painful task for the android. Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, and members of the Black Order were spotted filming in Edinburgh a while ago, so that's probably where this goes down.

There is a slim chance he could survive without the Stone, but that would presume it being removed safely in the first place. If Thanos is to get all of the Stones, and if this movie is going to have stakes, then you'd think he has to die, sadly.
