Microsoft 365 Users Must Opt Out to Avoid Price Hike for Copilot

Microsoft 365 subscribers are facing a price increase unless they actively opt out of Microsoft’s Copilot AI.

The tech giant has announced that its AI assistant will now be bundled into Microsoft 365 Personal and Family plans, leading to higher subscription fees for users who do not take action. While Microsoft claims this reflects added value, critics argue that the company is effectively forcing AI adoption by making the opt-out process cumbersome.
