Language Model Chat Provider (aka BYOK) API with Logan Ramos

This week, VS Code engineer Logan Ramos joins the pod to talk about Bring Your Own Key... or Bring Your Own Model... the ability to configure models from several providers including Azure, OpenAI, xAI, Anthropic, Google, and more. We talk about how and why you would actually use this functionality, but more importantly a new API for extenders to bring ANY model directly into VS Code!
