As usual, I was careful with my words:
> This project from Cursor is the second attempt I've seen at this now!
I used the word "attempt" very deliberately, to avoid suggesting that either of these two projects had achieved the goal.
I don't see how you can get to "baseless hype without a hint of skepticism" there unless you've already decided to take anything I say in bad faith.
C'mon. Your comment starts with you hyping your own prediction and crowing, "See, it's coming true!"
"But I didn't say this exact word!" and then accusing the other person of bad faith is some textbook DARVO.
Right, because it IS coming true (gotta be careful with that word choice - "coming true" and "has come true" mean different things.)
There are already multiple attempts at building a from-scratch browser with LLM assistance. Unsurprisingly none of them have achieved full working browser status yet, several weeks after their attempts started.
