Microsoft follows Google with price bump, forced AI 365 bundles

In the announcement post, Microsoft says that the price of Microsoft 365 will be rising from $7 to $10 per month for Personal subscribers and $10 to $13 per month for the Family bundle. Per-year prices will be rising from $70 to $100 (Personal) and $100 to $130 (Family).

What do you get for that 42 percent jump in price at the lowest tier? Access to Copilot-powered text generation, formatting, and queries in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote, plus AI-generated images and editing in OneNote.

You won't have unlimited use of these tools, by the way. You get 60 "AI credits" per month, and they can't be banked or rolled over. Copilot Pro, which costs an additional $20 per month on top of existing 365 plans, is currently the only way to get "extensive usage." (Presumably that means unlimited credits since it isn't enumerated.)
