The question isn't about Copilot's market share - it's whether their technical choices will let them keep pace with agile competitors building on rapidly evolving general-purpose LLMs. 8/9

The real revolution? Democratizing tech entrepreneurship.
- Lower MVP costs
- Single founders can prototype
- Faster iteration cycles
- Reduced barriers to entry 7/9

Why being first isn't enough:
- Proprietary models become a burden
- Organizational complexity slows innovation
- New players experiment more freely
- General-purpose LLMs advance rapidly 6/9

New players are reimagining development:
- Vercel's v0: Full app generation from descriptions • Replit: Intelligent collaboration
- Cursor: AI-first IDE
- Windsurf: Affordable VS Code integration 5/9

But here comes Cursor, showing explosive growth:
- $4M ARR in Apr. 24 → $4M monthly revenue in Oct. 24
- Valuation: $400M → $2.5B in 4 months
- Major VCs fighting to invest 4/9

The numbers are impressive:
- 50K enterprise customers
- 44% global developer adoption
- Strong presence across IT, Software, and Finance
- 55% faster coding speeds reported 3/9

Despite dominating the AI coding assistant market with 1.3M paid subscribers and 30% QoQ growth, GitHub Copilot faces an interesting challenge: keeping up with more innovative competitors. 2/9
