  The VS clone that lets you use other companies AI models? I have actually tried it but didn't "get" it. What is good about it?

    I was working on a game. The game is about conversations... what someone is saying, how they say it, how they interrupt and talk over each other, reading the feel of the room. There was a lot of tweaking around the pace of conversation. It can't be too fast or too slow. I can tell Cursor to have character A speak faster when angry, or I can say that the hesitation pause between characters is too long. I can ask it to make characters cut off each other. I can say I want to add a typewriter effect to the dialogue. I can tell it that the typewriter effect and music needs to be aligned to the same pace. Basically, I want to be working on the engine as the creative expert, not as a code writer. I know how the engine works; I know when Cursor is updating the code wrong and I can correct it or give it a better suggestion. Something more autonomous is not good at this; it's at my ideal level of semi-auto. And since it reads code, I can point it to the file with all the dialogue and tell it to make the dialogue snappier. It did a lot of really good "autotuning" on my writing.

      That's similar to how I use LLMs but what is special about cursor? The fact it applies the updates without copy pasting?
