Yet again... You fundamentally have the wrong answer...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GitHub_Copilot

GitHub Copilot is a code completion and automatic programming tool developed by GitHub and OpenAI

https://github.com/features/copilot

GitHub copilot was literally developed WITH OpenAI the creators of ChatGPT... and you can run o1, o3, o4 directly in there.

https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/using-github-copilot/ai-models/changing-the-ai-model-for-copilot-code-completion

By default, Copilot code completion uses the GPT-4o Copilot, a fine-tuned GPT-4o mini based large language model (LLM).

It defaults to 4o mini.

Thank you

None of this was true of copilot for years, but I stand corrected as for the current state of affairs
