this is a pretty clean test of whether people were buying cursor or just using it for convenient access to whichever model was flavor of the week.
i work in qa so i'm naturally wary of adding another critical dependency to a development workflow, if the model you actually want can just disappear because two vendor change ownership or start argueing then the wrapper has to be really good on its own.
cursors harness and its own models may be good enough that users stay, and if they do cursor has a moat at least. if everyone follows the openai models out the door, it will just become a polished ui.
- pianopatrick 1mo agoI use Cursor because I listened to YouTube interviews with the teams behind most of these products and I trusted their team the most.
- iamleppert 1mo agoHow TF do you trust people you don’t know from YouTube interviews? You don’t know them. They are strangers to you trying to sell you something.
- pianopatrick 1mo agoYeah, well that's the same as all the other AI companies isn't it
