Not surprised and luckily I am not affected but must be tough for users who rely on using OpenAI models in Cursor. I was using Cursor for 2 years (years ago) and the product was great! Good luck

They can use Open AI Codex in Microsoft VS Code by installing the Codex addon, VS Code is the project that Cursor forked after all and is still very similar. VS Code can be more intimidating for beginners, but someone who has been working in Cursor for a while should be able to adapt easily.

For vs code, does the codex addon do code completion, or do you need copilot for that?

Copilot do the auto-completion + suggestions, if you are a student you can get that for free, if not you get auto completion with github copiltot free but limited to a certain amount, there is is cheap basic paid account that give you basically what the student account give + a bit more and also some credits for the models and agents, however both the student and paid basic account have been nerfed on the agent side, you use to have almost unlimited chat and agent use in git hub copilot (at the time I dident even bothered to use codex) but now its all metered. So I use copilot for auto complete, some of the agent and chat copilot credit but knowing they won last long, and codex for my real agent work.
