Is this why AI is telling us our every idea is brilliant and great? Because their code doesn't stand up to what we can do?

Copilot is easily the worst (and probably slowest) coding agent. SOTA and Copilot don't even inhabit similar planes of existence.
I've found Opus 4.5 in copilot to be very impressive. Better than codex CLI in my experience. I agree Copilot definitely used to be absolutely awful.

cursor is better than both, i wish this weren’t the case tbph

This sentence and the rest of the post reads like an horoscope advice. Like "It can be good if you use it well, it may be bad if you don't". It's pretty much the same as saying a coin may land on head or on tail.
saying "a coin may land on head or on tail" is useful when other people are saying "we will soon have coins that always land on heads"
this is doable, you just have to rig the coin
It's very useful if you have the knowledge and experience to tell when it's wrong. That is the absolutely vital skill to work with these systems. In the right circumstances, they can work miracles in a very short time. But if they're wrong, they can easily waste hours or more following the wrong track.
It's fast, it's very well-read, and it's sometimes correct. That's my analysis of it.
