Lots of articles on it... and I am not even talking about competitors like Benioff [1]. I am talking about user complaints like this [2]. Users expect Copilot to be fully integrated, like Cursor is into VSCode. Instead what you get is barely better than typing into standalone AI chats like Claude.AI.

The linked complaint is specifically about Microsoft Copilot, which despite the name is completely unrelated to the original GitHub Copilot. VS Code's integrated GitHub Copilot nowadays has the Copilot Edits feature, which can actually edit, refactor and generate files for you using a variety of models, pretty much exactly like Cursor.
My read of the thread is that this discussion is specifically about Microsoft Copilot, not GitHub Copilot.
Which I guess just goes to show how confusing Microsoft insists on making its making scheme
Sorry I meant Microsoft Copilot should be as integrated into Office as Cursor is into VSCode. I was not talking about GitHub Copilot.
