Now, you might recall that I had to enable this model here.
This sometimes happens if you're using a model you haven't used
it's worth noting that when using GitHub Copilot, you can
indeed manage which models can be used in your GitHub account.
Now, it will depend on whether you're an
for a team of users or on your own account.
This here is my own account. But you will have a Copilot
settings section where you can enable or disable
certain features for you or for your team members,
depending on what you're managing, and you can also enable or
disable certain models here. So for example, here, when I loaded this
page before, OpenAI GPT-5 wasn't enabled yet, which is
why it asked me to select an option.
If I reload this page now that I did enable it, you see it
So you can also do it from inside Visual Studio Code if you're trying to use
something you haven't enabled yet, at least if you've got the permissions
to change these settings. But you can also do it here so
that pop-up in Visual Studio Code.
And it's not just about AI models here, and of course, this settings page
may also change in the future. You can also enable or disable other
options here, like for example, if the Copilot coding agent in general is
enabled or not. It's definitely worth visiting this site
from time to time because this is such a fast-changing
technology that the options that are available here are
changing a lot too, and it's this page where you can
enable or disable many features, especially also preview or experimental
features that might be interesting to you.
