This is one of the most interesting reveals today: Copilot Fusion on GitHub Copilot. It offers roughly the intelligence of Opus 5.5 at 50% less cost. A truly impressive achievement. Kudos @github

Frontier performance at a fraction of the cost. In the @ArtificialAnlys Coding Agent Index, Copilot Fusion Max scored within two points of Claude Code with Opus 5.5 Max at about half the API cost per task. Get 30% off through Nov. 30. Try it now. ⬇️ docs.github.com/copilot/conc…

Last week in Cologne I showed how you can use the GitHub Copilot App and Foundry to build an agent you can deploy across Teams, Outlook or an app of your choice. I also showed how you can integrate our new Decision 1 model for intent classification. I'm interested in agents that can recognise intent and then take action independetly if they decide they can be helpful, so this was fun to show!

AI agents are writing more code. How can developers ensure that code is correct? Microsoft Research’s Proof-Driven Development (PDD) Kit explores a more rigorous approach: it translates a developer’s intent into a formal specification, then uses formal verification to prove that generated code meets it. PDD Kit works with Verus for Rust and is integrated with @GitHubNext’s Chopin, bringing formal methods into an AI-assisted development workflow for teams. See the work in action at @github Universe, Oct. 28–29, 2026.

Microsoft-Decision-1 is live on OpenRouter. Microsoft's numbers: highest accuracy across 36 blind benchmarks (~150K questions), 4.5x faster than the runner-up, 35x faster than GPT-6 Sol, and decisions flip on just 1.3% of perturbed inputs. Post-trained from Qwen3.5-9B. $0.042/M input, output free, 32K context openrouter.ai/microsoft/micr…
Introducing Microsoft-Decision-1, our new model for fast decision-making. It delivers top performance on structured decision tasks, outperforming both LLMs and other decision models in latency and quality. We’re already testing it across Microsoft for everything from incident response and quality control to scientific discovery.

AI you can trust starts with questions. AT&T data scientist Natalie Gilbert puts skepticism to work by thinking through edge cases and making informed decisions instead of blindly trusting AI. microsoft.com/en-us/ai/see-y…

📣 @OpenAIDevs has reduced the price for GPT-5.6 Sol by 50% until September 3. Try it out in GitHub Copilot wherever you work.
📣 @OpenAIDevs's GPT-5.6 family is now generally available and rolling out in GitHub Copilot. GPT-5.6 comes in three variants: ☀️ GPT-5.6 Sol: the highest reasoning ceiling in the family. Best for complex reasoning over large codebases and demanding, long-running agentic work. 🌎 GPT-5.6 Terra: the balanced default. A strong all-round choice for everyday interactive and agentic coding. 🌕 GPT-5.6 Luna: a lightweight, cost-efficient variant for smaller, faster tasks and the lowest-cost option in the family. Try one, two, or them all in @code or the GitHub Copilot app. github.blog/changelog/2026-0…
