Since upgrading to 0.42.4, I am encountering a lot of weird behavior where the model is changing on me without me making a change.
For example, I will be typing in the text box and as I am typing I will see the model change.
The issue for me is that model keeps switching from the new Sonnet to o1-Preview. I even went as far as turning off everything but Sonnet and 4o and it’s actually reverting my switches in the Settings interface and re-enabled the models again … and then keeps switching back to o1-preview.
This problem is back for me. I am surprised I am the only person reporting it. It’s an expensive problem because Cursor keeps switching to o1-preview when I don’t want it to.
FWIW, restarting Cursor does not fix the problem. This is the exact same issue I reported a week ago. The issue stopped for me for several days and now it’s back. I continue to get charged for 01-preview calls because Cursor switches back to that model on my own and I keep forgetting to check before I submit a chat. I can’t even disable o1-preview from Settings. It switches back on.
It also doesn’t help that you can barely see the model name when in Composer.
This is what I see in Chat where the model name is very legible:
But in Composer you can barely read it:
