Always uses o1-preview after enabling usage billing

Bug Report
1

I just updated Cursor and turned on usage billing to try out the o1 preview.

Now, whenever I try to use a smaller model for a less complex task and speed, it will start the generation and then midway through the generation it will stop and restart it using the 01 preview. I can’t get access to the old generation at all.

Attempted Fixes:

  • disabling 01 Preview and 01 Mini models
    • this did not fix anything. Upon trying to do a completion, Cursor would turn the models back on and automatically default to 01 Preview

Thanks for reporting.
If you feel comfortable, are you able to get a recording of this happening? I’m having trouble reproducing it on my computer.

Same here. It’s infuriating. I even specifically switched from o1-preview to 4o before clicking submit, it even started typing out text, and then switched to o1-preview.

I created a webm recording but this forum doesn’t allow me to upload it. Though in the recording, the 4o response finishes before the editor automatically switches the model back to o1-preview.

Maybe relevant detail: this happened while editing a previous message
