Microsoft owns VSCode and makes money from OpenAI. OpenAI invested in Windsurf and Cursor. Cursor, now worth more than Windsurf, started by copying/modifying Microsoft’s VSCode. So Microsoft indirectly helped create Cursor - but doesn’t control it and OpenAI (which Microsoft profits from) is helping grow Cursor. It’s a web of investments and forks showing how tech companies evolve and benefit from each other's tools and funding.

My opinion: Cursor is a feature that can be launched by vscode any day and this valuation will become a joke. This is one of the most bloated valuation bubble I have ever seen. Unless they get acquired by OpenAI just like windsurf

I’ve switched to Windsurf from Cursor and it’s so much better. Doesn’t throttle or get buggy even after hours of use.
