About OpenAI {% data variables.copilot.copilot_o3 %} in {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat %}

{% data reusables.copilot.o3-public-preview-note %}

OpenAI has a family of large language models that you can use as an alternative to the default model used by {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat_short %}. {% data variables.copilot.copilot_o3 %} is one of those models and excels at coding tasks across the entire software development lifecycle, from initial design to bug fixes, maintenance to optimizations.

{% data variables.copilot.copilot_o3 %} is hosted by OpenAI and GitHub's Azure tenant when used in {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %}. OpenAI makes the following data commitment: We [OpenAI] do not train our models on your business data by default. GitHub maintains a zero data retention agreement with OpenAI.

When using {% data variables.copilot.copilot_o3 %}, input prompts and output completions continue to run through {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %}'s content filters for public code matching, when applied, along with those for harmful, offensive, or off-topic content.
