Microsoft is making a notable shift in its developer tools strategy, selecting Anthropic’s Claude 4 over OpenAI models for Visual Studio Code. The move highlights Microsoft’s push to diversify AI partnerships and tap into Claude 4’s advanced reasoning and coding capabilities.
According to reports, the Claude 4 integration will power new code-completion and debugging features aimed at giving developers faster, more context-aware assistance. While Microsoft remains a key OpenAI investor, this decision signals a more competitive AI landscape where performance and flexibility drive choices.
The rollout of Claude 4 inside VS Code is expected later this year, promising improved productivity tools for millions of developers worldwide.
