GitHub has announced the launch of a free version of its Copilot tool for Visual Studio Code (VS Code), marking a shift from its previous subscription model. The new free tier allows users to access up to 2,000 code completions and 50 chat messages per month, utilizing AI models such as Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o. This initiative comes as GitHub celebrates surpassing 150 million developers on its platform. The free version aims to democratize access to AI coding assistance, making it available to a broader audience without requiring a subscription or credit card. GitHub's CEO, Satya Nadella, emphasized the importance of this move in enabling more developers to leverage AI tools in their coding practices. The free tier is expected to cater to casual users and those exploring AI coding tools before committing to a paid plan.
