>Copilot isn't an LLM, for a start

You're being overly pedantic here and moving goalposts. Copilot (for coding) without an LLM is pretty useless.

I stand by my assertion that these tools are all basically the same fundamental tech - LLMs.

Over generalizing. The synergy between the LLM and the client (cursor, Claude code, copilot, etc) make a huge difference in results.

This is like saying every web app is basically the same fundamental tech - databases.

Or that writing Python with notepad.exe and Jupyter are fundamentally the same.
