I think Cursor tab-completion is entirely in-house, right? That feature on its own is worth at least $5/month, it's super well done.
I agree, their tab completion is magical.

Yes for sure companies are already paying for having their products added to the training set of popular LLMs.

Google is an advertising company.
Microsoft, in fits of jealousy and veiled rage, wishes it were an advertising company.
OpenAI is not profitable yet despite having high charge rates.
If they aren't capitalizing on ad infusion yet, their shareholders should rightfully be getting angry, right? Money left on the table.
Simply because you and I may not be able to buy ads does not mean they arent already there.

Everyone is fighting for their view of the world right now and for those of us who do not have any investment in the success of one of the models, it feels like pure speculation at this point. I don't think there's a human on this planet who can even predict the state of the industry in 3 years. In my entire time in the industry, I have always felt like I had a good line of sight three years away. Even when the iphon…
It’s exciting, isn’t it? I’ve been programming for a quarter century now and this is the first time in 20 years that the future of tech is exciting again and the world is software’s oyster. Can’t wait for AI 2.0 and ads :(

I was there and it was a very common view, though perhaps not a majority view, that the iPhone was a flash in the pan. There were lots of people committed to the idea that only physical keyboards could work for mobile. Touch interfaces were viewed highly skeptically. And it wasn't just the Microsoft or Palm people saying it, it was large chunks of their customers. The initial goal of the iPhone was 1%, yes, 1% share…
Where are we now? Around the 3s era? By then, no one was saying that anymore. The AI scepticism is still going strong.

I can’t read things written in pure hyperbole like this. “Netflix isn’t a real company, they are nothing more than shills for camera-workers who film all of the content upstream.” Such a lame take. I’d be more interested if someone actually took a minute to think about the competitive landscape more seriously than this.
Hasn't the proliferation of streaming services shown that the content is the "drug"? To remain competitive, they had to start producing themselves.

Imagine you're studying, for example math, and you have to learn calculus, and you're living in a dormitory with a colleague, who's great at integration calculus, and every time you get another integration function puzzle to solve, this guy (or gal) pops up and says "it's 2*e^2/x+C dx", "it's e^2+C dx", "it's sin(x)/cos(x)+C dx" after 5 milliseconds, even before you fully comprehend the function... I have a question…
Do you also oppose calculators for the same reason?

I’m paying $20/m just for tab, and willing to pay $40/m just to have it in Rider so I can return back to using single IDE.
Doesn't Rider have JetBraims AI? It's basically the same thing as Cursor.
