Users of the AI-powered code editor Cursor have reported a recent change in the application's model auto-routing behavior. Specifically, the auto-router appears to be defaulting to more expensive, high-tier models like Claude Opus 5 High and GPT-5.5 High for tasks that previously would have been handled by less costly options. This shift has led to a significant increase in subscription usage for some users, prompting questions about whether this is an intentional change or a bug. AI
