Cursor mobile app removes AI model selection, frustrating users

Users of the Cursor IDE are expressing frustration with recent changes to the mobile application, specifically the removal of the ability to select different AI models. One user lamented that the app now defaults to Grok, an AI model associated with Elon Musk and xAI, which they find to be slow and undesirable.
