GitHub Just Ended Unlimited AI Coding
About this lesson
GitHub Copilot’s move toward AI credits and token-based billing is bigger than a pricing change. It exposes the real economics behind AI coding: autocomplete is cheap, agentic coding is expensive, and unlimited frontier-model usage may not be sustainable. In this video, we break down what changed, why developers are angry, why enterprises are worried, and what this means for Cursor, Claude Code, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and the future of AI engineering. Is unlimited AI coding dead? Not exactly. But unlimited frontier-model agents may be living on borrowed economics.
