| Model | Why it's a good fit |
|
||||
|-------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
||||
| {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gpt_41 %} | Reliable default for most coding and writing tasks. Fast, accurate, and works well across languages and frameworks. |
|
||||
| {% data variables.copilot.copilot_claude_sonnet_37 %} | Produces clear, structured output. Follows formatting instructions and maintains consistent style. |
|
||||
| {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini_flash %} | Fast and cost-effective. Well suited for quick questions, short code snippets, and lightweight writing tasks. |
