Company is losing their minds over AI costs
I made a post a few days ago how my company took away access to claude due to the increased cost. They also took away gpt 5.5.
Yesterday, they sent out a company wide email how “unprecedented” and “disruptive” this has been. They seem at a complete loss on what to do, one of the options seems going all in and giving everyone a ton of monthly credits or the opposite and just bare bones.
The one option is 13,000 credits through GitHub copilot a month. For the month of June, we have 11,000 and I am already at 37% after the first week.
My company is around 40k employees. Is there anyway to know how much the 13,000 credit a month plan would cost? Curious to know how much they are willingly to pay. Three months ago they did a round of layoffs before GitHub announced the new business model around pricing.
Edit: LMAOOOOOOO 100 credits is $1. Lmaoooo our piece of shit VP who rebranded as us “AI first” after the layoffs really thought this would replace us. This shit about to be so expensive lol.
