You do realize that these particular credits don’t go into the automakers’ pockets, right? They go to the vehicle buyer. Where it benefits GM (and Tesla, since they also are out of credits) is it makes the vehicle appear several thousand dollars less expensive. When GM and Tesla ran out of credits, they reduced the prices on their EVs to be close to what the net price to the buyer would have been if the incentives were still in place.
