Microsoft tightens Claude Fable access over data-retention worries

Microsoft is restricting internal use of Anthropic’s Claude Fable 5 for its employees while its legal team evaluatesAnthropic’s new data-retention requirements. Claude Fable 5 requires retaining prompts and outputs for up to 30 days (and potentially longer if flagged), raising concerns about customer data and confidentiality. Other Claude models remain available internally under Zero Data Retention, but Claude Fable isn’t in the internal model picker for Microsoft’s GitHub Copilot, highlighting ongoing compliance questions around internal use of the model.

The $20 AI Plan Is Over: Pricing War Shifts to Usage-Based Models

PCWorld argues that flat-rate AI subscriptions (such as $20/month) are becoming financially unsustainable as providers pivot to usage-based pricing; GitHub Copilot has already moved away from flat fees, Anthropic is trimming Claude Pro/Max features and adjusting allowances, and OpenAI’s ChatGPT Plus/Pro are expected to follow. The result is a coming price reality where powerful AI agents may cost hundreds per month for individuals and enterprises, rather than a cheap, all-in-one subscription.

Microsoft Goes All-In on Agentic AI as Copilot Shifts to Usage-Based Pricing

Microsoft outlined a broad AI push: Agent Mode (now the default 'edit with Copilot') is integrated across Excel, Word, and PowerPoint, with Copilot and GitHub Copilot moving to usage-based pricing. Nadella said nearly 90% of Fortune 500 companies have active agents built with Microsoft’s low-code tools, and Copilot usage is rising as customers deploy custom agents. GitHub Copilot will include monthly AI credits, and Microsoft plans more AI infrastructure spending (~$40B). Bing reached 1 billion active monthly users, underscoring the company’s AI‑driven strategy.

Copilot switches to token-based pricing with AI credits starting June 1

GitHub Copilot will move from its Premium Request Unit model to a usage-based, token-based system beginning June 1, 2026, using monthly AI Credits tied to token consumption; base subscription prices stay the same for now (Copilot Pro $10/mo, Pro+ $39/mo) and Enterprise/Business retain pricing while adding monthly credits, with promotional credits for June–August and pooled org credits to reduce stranded capacity. Once credits run out, users can’t continue typical usage unless more credits are purchased. A May preview will show projected costs before the June bills. The shift reflects rising AI compute/inference costs and mirrors broader industry price increases.”,

JPMorgan’s AI-Usage Dashboards Spotlight Engineers’ Tool Adoption

JPMorgan is rolling out internal dashboards to track how engineers use AI tools like GitHub Copilot and Claude, with a quarterly scoring system that ranks users and informs managers about AI adoption. The bank says the data isn’t used in performance reviews, but employees describe growing pressure to demonstrate frequent AI use, amid dashboards showing tens of thousands of users and a tiered “non/light/heavy” usage classification. Some workers welcome the tools for productivity gains, while others worry about being labeled underperformers or overworked as AI adoption accelerates.

Azure Copilot Migration Agent: AI-Driven Planning for Faster Cloud Migrations

Microsoft unveiled the public preview of the Azure Copilot Migration Agent, an AI-powered assistant in the Azure Migrate dashboard that accelerates migration planning by agentless VMware discovery (with the Azure Migrate Collector for offline inventory), auto-generating landing zones via Terraform or Bicep and sequencing wave plans, and handing app modernization tasks to development teams through GitHub Copilot. The agent provides planning enhancements but does not perform actual migrations; end-to-end execution remains in Azure Migrate, with VMware workloads currently the most fully supported. Tenant enablement is required, and pricing has not been announced.

GitHub Copilot Enhances Coding with Agent Mode and Web Browser

The article discusses the complexities and practical benefits of using GitHub Copilot's Agent Mode and MCP in software development, emphasizing that these tools are primarily aids for decision-making and automation rather than replacements for comprehensive engineering processes. It highlights real-world scenarios where AI accelerates coding tasks, but also cautions about over-reliance and organizational issues, advocating for thoughtful integration and communication.

"GitHub Copilot Extension Revolutionizes Developer Efficiency in Visual Studio 2022"

GitHub Copilot, an "AI pair programming tool," has launched Copilot Extensions, allowing developers to extend it with third-party skills from partners like DataStax, Docker, Microsoft Azure, and more. The goal is to make Copilot the most integrated, powerful, intelligent AI platform, enabling natural language programming and integration with any tool in the developer tech stack. These extensions will live in the GitHub Marketplace, with the ability for developers to create their own private extensions. The aim is to help developers stay in their flow and interact with systems in natural language without switching context, and the extensions are currently in private preview.

"Apple to Launch AI Code-Writing Tool to Compete with GitHub Copilot"

Apple is close to completing a new AI tool for app developers that will rival Microsoft's GitHub Copilot, using artificial intelligence to predict and complete blocks of code, potentially saving time and money. The tool, part of the next major version of Xcode, is expected to be released to third-party software makers this year. Apple is also exploring AI for code generation and plans to introduce new AI features in its upcoming iOS and iPadOS 18 updates, with a gradual approach to AI development. The company is also considering AI features for Apple Music playlists, Keynote, and a revamped version of Spotlight.
