It also seemed mostly AI, which made me think, okay, I'll copy and paste this and have a model summarize it for me, but it seemed, I don't know, low effort, not interesting. I didn't even bother.
There seems to be this push towards more agents, more better. Me no write code, me just yell at box. But recently I've actually gone the other way. I stopped using the frontier models and just started using cursor auto.
Mostly because it's just insanely fast, like 20 times faster than the frontier stuff. And it really isn't that bad. If it screws up, it's fine, I can fix it quickly. If the frontier models screw up, I just burned two hours.
The last thing I want to do is burn $20,000 worth of tokens overnight, to realize they made a complete mess.
When it was the policy to use AI tooling, that’s all I ever used. And it was mostly one or two prompts in most conversations to get things done. Get a first version generated by the AI and fix the issues manually.
