Is the age of free AI over?

If you're a company of more than 2,000 users, Microsoft is removing a big aspect of Copilot Chat from those who don't have a full Microsoft 365 Copilot license. But they aren't the only ones: GitHub has recently been restricting new signups for some tiers of GitHub Copilot and even Anthropic has indicated changes in access for Pro tier users to Claude Code. This may be the start of a big AI pricing readjustment that may have been on the cards for a while. 🎙️ FIND OUT MORE ABOUT OUR TOPIC OR GUEST Microsoft backtracks on Copilot Chat access in M365 apps - https://www.computerworld.com/article/4150022/microsoft-backtracks-on-copilot-chat-access-in-m365-apps.html [https://www.computerworld.com/article/4150022/microsoft-backtracks-on-copilot-chat-access-in-m365-apps.html] 📢 MICROSOFT 365 BUSINESS BOOST Brought to you by Nick DeCourcy from Bright Ideas Agency and Therman Trotman from The SharePoint Helpdesk, Microsoft 365 Business Boost is a bi-weekly podcast focused on helping demystify Microsoft 365 and drive better business value from its adoption. 🔗 CONNECT WITH THERMAN LinkedIn - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/therman-trotman-15790b33/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-sharepoint-helpdesk/] The SharePoint Helpdesk page - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-sharepoint-helpdesk/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-sharepoint-helpdesk/] YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@thesharepointhelpdesk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://youtube.com/@thesharepointhelpdesk] TikTok - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@thesphelpdesk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.tiktok.com/@thesphelpdesk] 🔗 CONNECT WITH NICK LinkedIn - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickdc/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickdc/] Bright Ideas Agency - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/brightideasagency/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/brightideasagency/] YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@brightideasagency⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/brightideasagency/] ⚠️ DISCLAIMERS Apart from publicly accessible information, all user data or other related information shared in this video is created for demonstration purposes only.
