Experiencing the best brainstorming of my life lately just by having long voice chats with AI (dictation not advanced voice mode), then pasting the transcript into another AI script that extracts and logs all the best ideas. Works best to talk while going on walks!

I'm on a crazy winning streak where Cursor/Claude hasn't messed up in hours. Either somethings in the air or I'm just getting better at prompting. UPDATE: I jinxed myself! Winning stream over.

LOL I wrote this 3 weeks ago. That's how long I had to persevere with Cursor before I let go of my attachment to writing every line of my code. I'm happy now being 70% PM, 30% programmer. The models really are good enough now for most things I do.

After 72 hours of letting Cursor write 100% of the code for a small project I looked at the source for the first time and almost vomited. Yes, it works, but my God. Selling my soul like this had better pay really really well.

This is great but I'd prefer to limit the scope to within each Project. Memory across all my chats will be annoying, but within a set of related chats it makes sense.

o3 nailed the first job I asked it for, scanning a photo of a flower garden and identifying every individual plant. It guessed 10 out of 15 correctly but more importantly it did, as advertised, pan around and ruminate over every detail just as a human would. I would totally

I've been begging 4o to give me real criticism but it won't stop kissing my feet. o3 finally delivers a thinking partner who isn't afraid to hurt my feelings, while also being easy to chat with. It's a savage and I love it!

My current opinion is we should be iterating on specs and one shotting the code. Too many people doing the opposite now.

5 weeks later and I have canceled my Cursor subscription and gone back to VS Code sans Copilot. I really tried. There were moments I felt like the tweet below. Overall I realized we are not there yet and not close. I feel bad for people forced to build with today's LLMs. If you

Coding with AI means endless planning sessions. Seemed neat at first but then I remembered what "planning" pre-AI was. I'd just think for a little while until the pieces would snap together in my head, then the code would roll off my fingertips. With AI I'd have to first explain

If you know what it feels like to have a vision for software in your head and then bring it to life with perfect fidelity, how could you ever accept the tradeoffs of AI-assisted coding? It would only make sense if the AI was both 10x faster than me and 99% as accurate. Right
