## AI overview

GitHub's Project HydraFusion research preview for Copilot orchestrates multiple models at runtime for coding tasks. Its single, cascade, and critique execution patterns aim to balance task quality, latency, and estimated cost.

## Source excerpt

GitHub's Project HydraFusion is a research preview for GitHub Copilot that enhances coding intelligence through runtime model orchestration. It dynamically assembles execution plans using models from various providers. The system employs three execution patterns based on task complexity. Evaluations indicate that it achieves high task quality while significantly reducing operational costs. By Olimpiu Pop
