It's not even the same class. Copilot does autocomplete essentially. Cursor does that but with the scope of a file/project. That means after you change one thing it will offer to skip to another part of the file and do the other part of the change there. Refractors often end up being a single change then (tab), (tab), (tab), ... And it's correct a shocking amount of time. The UI of proposed changes is also better. I'd recommend just trying it, because it's hard to summarise how much it's not copilot.

The "tab to next change" feature is amazing and I would love it if it worked reliably. As it is though, I suspect whatever model Cursor Tab is using under the hood has a fairly small context window, so the range of that "tab to move" feature ends up being pretty limited. Overall my takeaway after months of using Cursor is that it has some really promising features but their LLM engine is too underpowered to deliver. Hopefully that will change over the next few years. The potential is definitely there.
