Same issue. ~~It seems the only model it works with is 3.5 Sonnet.~~ All models throw the same error.
Just to add on to this. First appeared in v4.84.0 Checked each version since and the same issue in all version. Last working version v4.83.1 v4.84.0 was the first version that brought switch model from the chat tab. 8.83.1, this was via the settings tab only.
This seems to be fixed with the latest version that was released yesterday.

For me, it's not fixed, but is now usable I am now able to change model from settings page, but the drop down at the bottom of the page still isn't working correctly. When selecting a model from settings, it's shows up as: "copilot - gpt-5-mini" That same model in drop down under the chat shows as: "Copilot / Gpt 5 Mini" The other models, that I still can't change to in the drop down show as: "Gpt 5 Mini"

Can confirm I am experiencing the same behaviour - can change the model via provider settings, but the chat dropdown still gives the same error.
