GPT-6.1 Terra arrives in GitHub Copilot
GitHub Changeloghigh confidence
Why it matters
- →GPT-6.1 Terra offers a cheaper alternative to Sol for routine agentic coding tasks in Copilot.
- →Early benchmarks show improved terminal and C# task completion over the previous GPT-5.6 Terra model.
- →The model is available across all major IDEs and mobile apps, with admin controls for enterprise deployment.
OpenAI has made GPT-6.1 Terra generally available in GitHub Copilot, positioning it as a cost-effective option for agentic coding and terminal tasks. The model outperforms its predecessor, GPT-5.6 Terra, in early tests regarding terminal and C# task completion. It is accessible to all Copilot tiers, including Pro, Business, and Enterprise, across platforms like VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and mobile apps. Administrators can manage access via model policies, with the new model enabled by default unless explicitly disabled.

llama.cpp b12029 adds CUDA 13 and Snapdragon support
This release quietly cements llama.cpp as the universal inference runtime by finally supporting NVIDIA's latest CUDA 13 stack alongside AMD's ROCm 10.0. The inclusion of native builds for Linux arm64 with Snapdragon chips, covering CPU, Adreno GPU, and Hexagon NPU, signals a serious push into mobile edge deployment. While Apple Silicon KleidiAI is disabled in this specific build, the broader hardware coverage means developers no longer need to compile from source for most modern accelerators. It’s less about new features and more about removing friction for anyone running local models on bleeding-edge or diverse hardware.
