I'm not entirely sure if this strategy will work out well for OpenAI. In my opinion, an AI company, especially in its early stages, should focus intensely on refining and expanding its core products—those they plan to monetize through APIs—rather than diverting resources toward acquiring wrapper companies. Cursor, for instance, gained traction by embedding Anthropic's Claude Sonnet model to automate programming tasks. If OpenAI were to acquire Cursor or a similar IDE, a key question arises: would they keep it open to other models, or would they restrict it to OpenAI's ecosystem? Additionally, there’s speculation that OpenAI might be venturing into social media (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43694877 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43694877). If true, this could open up numerous competitive fronts that the company may struggle to handle effectively. They’re already dealing with fierce competition in their core business, so expanding too quickly into unrelated areas could spread their focus and resources too thin, potentially weakening their competitiveness in unfamiliar markets.
