Great interview question to see if someone understands how to build AI applications @ a 101 level: “Why does Cursor get slower the longer I talk to it?”

Use Cursor to write your changelog in Docs "i need your help updating our release notes! git log -p --pretty=fuller -35 | cat run this and then update my changelog" only reason docs.asteragents.com/changelog is updated. shout out Mintlify for docs in the same git repo

“The reason that the Fortune 500 aren’t using LLMs to transform their workflows isn’t because the management is too stodgy. “ Agree! They are trying, it’s just not going well. So many crappy chains of prompts that are masquerading as “agents” 🤮

This is why the “handoff” multi-agent approach (one context window, passed between agents) doesn’t make sense to me Hierarchical multi-agent setup is the only one we’ve gotten significant performance gains out of. And yes that’s mostly attributable to multiple context windows

When waiting for technology to adapt and improve, it almost always happens faster than you’d expect When waiting for humans to adapt and improve, it almost always happens slower than you’d expect

If I had a nickel for every time a client suggested building an “AI Agent” to do something that literally just requires a SQL query… 🤔
