{% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini %} models are large language models (LLMs) that you can use as an alternative to the default model used by {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat_short %}. {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini %} models are responsive LLMs that can empower you to build apps faster and more easily, so you can focus on great experiences for your users. {% data reusables.copilot.gemini-model-info %}
{% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini %} is currently available in:
- {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat_short %} in {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}
- Immersive mode in {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat_short %} in {% data variables.product.github %}
{% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} uses {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini_flash %} and {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini_25_pro %} hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). When using {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini %} models, prompts and metadata are sent to GCP, which makes the following data commitment: {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini %} doesn't use your prompts, or its responses, as data to train its models.
When using {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini %} models, 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.
You must enable access to {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini_flash %} and {% data variables.copilot.copilot_gemini_25_pro %} before you can use the model.
