Not Windsurf… OpenAI. And OpenAI cares because they’re competing (in part) against Copilot, so if Msoft gets all the benefits of Windsurf then OpenAI would effectively be paying 3B to feed their competitor.

This would also happen if OpenAI developed the same thing internally, right? I don't see how not acquiring them improves anything.

Only if OpenAI declares they have achieved AGI.
