OpenAI’s o3-mini joins GitHub Copilot and Microsoft Azure in a collaboration.

OpenAI has just launched its latest model, the o3-mini, and it’s about to become even more accessible across various platforms, starting with Microsoft services. This means that soon, you’ll be able to find the new OpenAI model in some of the features of Copilot and GitHub.

The o3-mini model offers advanced performance for a range of tasks, all at a fraction of the cost of its predecessor, the o1. It’s particularly impressive when it comes to math, programming, and science-related questions. While you can already access it through the OpenAI API, now you’ll also be able to use it for free if you’re a Copilot or GitHub user.

But that’s not all! Microsoft has also confirmed that they will be providing access to the o3-mini model through the Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service. If you’re a developer eager to give it a try, you can sign up for early access.

For those of you using GitHub Copilot and GitHub Models, get ready for even more consistent and faster responses. You’ll have access to all the capabilities of the o3-mini model, and you’ll see firsthand how it can enhance your coding experience.

If you’re a GitHub Copilot subscriber, you’ll be able to receive up to 50 messages every 12 hours. And with GitHub Models, developers can now utilize the model to test out various functionalities and implementations.

This collaboration between OpenAI and Microsoft is an exciting development for the AI community. It not only expands the reach of the o3-mini model but also brings its powerful capabilities to the fingertips of developers on popular platforms like GitHub. So whether you’re working on a complex math problem or trying to optimize your code, the o3-mini model is here to lend a helping hand.
