I installed and played around with Cursor for all of perhaps 2 hours before giving up in disgust. The first few generations are generally quite good. After that, problems started to stack up so exponentially that I found myself rubbing my temples. You would probably have the same reaction if you could read the generated code. I decided it's better to stick to my current approach of using LLMs as an expert system, helping me figure out which functions, libraries, algorithms, data structures or patterns to use, and occasionally asking them to write a standalone function.
