Azure OpenAI Model Updates

Question

Hello

According to this blog: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/ai-cognitive-services-blog/introducing-new-and-updated-models-to-azure-openai-service/ba-p/3860351

And this documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/openai/concepts/models

Model Updates are generally available to those who have access.

Our OpenAI deployment is in West Europe, but I do not see anywhere for the Model Updates. I can still only access 0301 version of GPT-3.5.

I'm not seeing anywhere on documentation about regional availability.

When will it be available in West Europe?

Hi, Geraint.

Currently, 0613 is not currently available in that region keep an eye on this page for availability, as capacity gets increased across the Azure fleet. However, in the meantime, you have to wait, keep an eye on that page and Azure updates for availability notices.

Once its deployed to that region you should have the same experience as below:

Under your deployments, and edit deployment, you should see a list of models, to update your deployments with.

Then under Models, you will see the versions - these are automatically added by Microsoft, then you can change the Deployment to the latest version if required :

This is East US.
