1 year ago Cursor was way ahead. Copilot had only one model and it was 4k input 4k output and it was forgetting about the previous reply. It was horrible.
One year later, the input context is at 128k token if you use vs code insider (64k for stable). You have multiples models, etc. they still cut corner like o1 barely answer (I guess they severely restrict the amount of output token) but sonnet 3.5 works surprisingly well.
They do have rate limit, you can check their issues tracker on GitHub, there are complaints about rate limits every day.
All in all, for $10 it’s good value. Cursor is also great for $20 and you get more models and more features.
Copilot is catching up fast, but they are not there yet. But they finally woke up.
