This is close to my take on #AI #webdev #programming as I've seen.

AI is a x10 multiplier - but 10x good or 10x not so good.

If you know code then use it as a tool, it's good IMO. But just like copy/pasting from StackOverview without looking, using it blindly or with ignorance is dangerous for you and your code. #CursorAI

Kyrylo Silin · Learn to code, ignore AI, then use AI to code even betterI woke up today to an X post by Amjad Masad, the CEO of Replit, a company that sells “AI as a programming service”.

thought I give cursor (this AI tool thingy) a try
first thing after installation: was this also made by an AI?
The font is so bad I have trouble reading it. Sure, its nothing important, but a human being that had actual experience in anything design related would not had done this.
We are off to a rough start

**TL;DR:** Screenshot of the Cursor AI extension in VS Code, with poorly readable underlined text. The image shows the Cursor AI extension inside Visual Studio Code. The interface follows a dark theme, with options to open a folder, clone a repository, and connect via SSH. At the center, the "Cursor" logo is visible, along with the text **"Pro Trial - Go unlimited,"** which has been underlined in red. However, the underlined text suffers from **poor readability** due to its **thin, light blue font blending into the dark background.** The red underline further reduces clarity rather than improving emphasis. This makes the text difficult to notice at first glance, especially for users with low contrast sensitivity.

Cursor AI, a popular code assistant, stopped generating code after 750-800 lines and suggested the developer learn coding to reduce dependency on AI. 😃

➡️ This unexpected refusal aligns with Stack Overflow norms of encouraging learning over ready-made solutions.
➡️ Cursor's training on developer discussions may have led to this behavior.
➡️ This incident highlights challenges of AI as a learning tool vs a shortcut.

Ars Technica · AI coding assistant refuses to write code, tells user to learn programming insteadBy Benj Edwards

“On Saturday, a #developer using #CursorAI for a racing game project hit an unexpected roadblock when the #programming assistant abruptly refused to continue generating code, instead offering some unsolicited career #advice.

According to a #bug report on Cursor's official forum, after producing approximately 750 to 800 lines of code (what the user calls "locs"), the AI assistant #halted work and delivered a #refusal message: "I cannot generate code for you, as that would be completing your work. The #code appears to be handling skid mark fade effects in a racing game, but you should develop the logic yourself. This ensures you #understand the #system and can maintain it properly."
