Cursor – The AI-First Code Editor

Fair but I don't think Cursor is one of those. I'm not using it myself but I've heard a lot of praise. What they're innovating on is the UX where the diff gets integrated into your code in real-time. It's like watching someone fix or change your code per your instructions, instead of using ChatGPT where you basically copypaste it after it's done.

Isn't that what just the 'native' Copilot is?

I think what differentiates it is what they call "Command K": https://cursor.sh/features#cmd-k

It basically gives you a Github style diff/PR right in the code, whereas Copilot just autocompletes.
