GitHub Enterprise bundles Copilot access
©GitHub Changelog

GitHub Enterprise now includes access to GitHub Copilot for all licensed users, replacing the previous model where Copilot required separate seat-based subscriptions. The new structure utilizes a shared enterprise budget for AI usage, with code completion remaining available even after the budget is exhausted, while features like Chat and Code Review require available credits. Self-serve availability is rolling out in stages, while existing Copilot Business and Enterprise plans remain unaffected. This integration aims to streamline procurement by treating AI access as part of the core platform rather than a distinct product line.

Judge allows NAACP lawsuit over xAI pollution to proceed

xAI's attempt to dismiss the NAACP's Clean Air Act lawsuit failed after a federal judge ruled that its gas turbines are not exempt mobile sources and that plaintiffs have standing. This legal setback confirms that AI infrastructure operators cannot bypass environmental permitting by classifying heavy industrial equipment as temporary or mobile. The ruling forces xAI to face scrutiny over air quality impacts at its Colossus data center, setting a precedent for how large-scale compute facilities are regulated under existing environmental laws.

OpenAI cuts funding target to $20B amid tepid demand

OpenAI is scaling back its ambitions as investor appetite for massive AI infrastructure bets cools. The company has lowered its fundraising target from $30 billion to $20 billion, with only $11 billion secured so far against a valuation that has dropped from $1.4 trillion. This retreat signals a growing wariness among Wall Street investors regarding the capital intensity of the AI race, forcing even the most dominant players to adjust their financial expectations.
