A raft of AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google have been officially cut from the GitHub Copilot service.

First announced in late September, users have had ample time to prepare for the deprecation cut-off date, which was confirmed in a blog post on 23 October.

The move comes as the company looks to usher users away from older models toward up-to-date options from the aforementioned providers.

“As part of our commitment to a fast, high‑quality Copilot experience, we regularly evaluate and retire older models in favor of newer, more capable ones,” the company said in September .

Anthropic models including Claude Sonnet 3.7, Claude Sonnet 3.7 Thinking, and Claude Opus 4 will be deprecated as part of the move while Gemini 2.0 Flash will be scrapped.
