Cursor - A Better Visual Studio Code/Copilot?

Cursor is a new code editor designed entirely around AI code assistance, dubbed Copilot++. It's a fork of Visual Studio Code with AI built in at the core... but is it better?

This looks cool, but the one thing I really want it to have is running a model locally. I don't want to have to rely on servers or my internet connection to work to be able to write code. LLMs are getting smaller these days so it's definitely possible to run your own LLM right now if your pc is powerful enough.

Been a cursor subscriber for 2 months. I really enjoy it. Good for ai assisted debugging.

i been using cursor for a couple of months and i love it. The fact that it has context of the project is a game changer.

Another day, another AI-based VsCode replacement lol

Revolutionary, bro. You just got a SUBSCRIBE!!!

As AI-assisted coding becomes more to remain competitive, what's the stop these features/interfaces from just being adopted directly by VS Code / Codium and instantly dooming this Cursor product? Am I missing something?

[boccobadz]

Can't see how is this any different than copilot/cody used in your configured vs code.

Nice, i use somtime in Studio Code like extension, for forgoten code, butm people lern one stuff this is assistince this can programing for you, when you go deel level you allone with you brain
, and now all editor based on that why not....and visual studio have better performance from jetbrain, but little smaller

I can still use Codeium with it as well, hah.

[Alac]

But how is it better than VS Code + Codeium?

aye-zuh-yer ? Are you joking? That's a new fun way to pronounce it I guess. Thanks for the video

The name C++ is not under any kind of trademark. Bjarne has specifically said so. And ++ comes from before Bjarne invented C++ anyway.

This site is ALWAYS on the cusp of what's going on in tech! Nice job!

All I want is a tabnine free tier++

Something that’s pretty much like tabnine but can use your whole project. Better access to file autocomplete. Run locally and doesn’t do big chunks of trash.

[thirdreplicator]

Is it codebase aware or is it just aware of one file at a time?

[EduardKaresli]

I want VS Code but written in Rust or C++. VS Code is sooo slow for big projects...

You realize there also exists Visual Studio that is not Visual Studio Code?
Bad choice of words to omit is distracting.

Thanks for the video.
Btw, you mostly talking about "visual studio" where you mean "visual studio code". Thoses are 2 different programs :)

Azure - Think of this pronunciation of the a like the a in At.

Sick of Chromium or VSCode based software...
