Learning Path 12-02: Compare language models from the model catalog - Issue

Learning Path 12-02: Compare language models from the model catalog
Exercise: Compare language models from the model catalog
Task: Create an Azure AI hub and project
Step: 7 - Next, enter the following command to run the Starter template. It will provision an AI Hub with dependent resources, AI project, AI Services and an online endpoint. It will also deploy the models GPT-4o, and GPT-4o mini.

Running the command in Step 7. azd up will fail as the template file is trying to deploy GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini. It returns an error stating they were deprecated on 3/31/2026.

To workaround this, I had the user manually edit the ai.yaml file once it had been cloned from the GH repo to use GPT-4.1 and GPT-4.1 mini using version "2025-04-014" for both.

Start by opening the ai.yaml file in the cloned Starter template and inspect the model deployment entries used by Step 7. Run azd up after updating the deprecated GPT-4o and GPT-4o mini entries; done means the template provisions successfully without requiring manual edits or producing the deprecation error.
