GitHub Copilot uses Gemini 2.0 Flash hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). When using Gemini 2.0 Flash, prompts and metadata are sent to GCP, which makes the following data commitment: Gemini doesn't use your prompts, or its responses, as data to train its models.

When using Gemini 2.0 Flash, input prompts and output completions continue to run through GitHub 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 Gemini 2.0 Flash before you can use the model.
