Microsoft has reportedly begun canceling most of its direct Claude Code licenses, according to The Verge, instead moving engineers toward using GitHub Copilot CLI. That comes just six months after the firm first opened up access to Claude Code, encouraging thousands of its developers, project managers, designers, and other employees to experiment with coding. The tech became popular fast. Perhaps too popular. The scale at which employees use it is now prompting the firm to reverse course on a tool its own engineers had come to rely on. Canceling Claude Code licenses won’t affect Microsoft’s Foundry deal, which includes investing up to $5 billion in Anthropic and giving Foundry customers access to Claude models, as well as Anthropic’s $30 billion commitment to purchase Azure compute capacity, according to The Verge.

It’s honestly kind of nice to see that humans can really understand that their labour is undervalued and put a dollar sign on it

It is going to scale like you wouldn’t believe. Look at Gen 1 internet. Nothing is going to stop it from coming for us.
