This is something I've been thinking about too. I think lower skill devs seem to feel the most ecstatic about LLMs as are able to prompt something into existence that is beyond their skill level, and that feels like magic. It very quickly becomes a crutch, however, and a junior developer may struggle to become a senior in skill level with too much dependency on Cursor and tools like it. They definitely lose their edge on complex products. I find it can be a great time saver for language reference and for rapid fire questions, but it isn't able to, as of yet, operate at an expert level on a complex novel codebase. Maybe it gets there in another year or two. But it currently makes enough mistakes at that level that it isn't worth it.
