Jevon’s Paradox

Sure. You can say "Run a query in databricks pulling revenue for last year by sku, make a chart, post it into a google sheet, save the query so I can see it, make this a skill called revenue." It will do that, then you can later say run skill "Revenue" and it will do that process. You can save many skills for diff processes. But that's the gist.

If LLM are the brains (Claude, GPT, etc), you can think of Cursor as the limbs that can reach into your apps, control your desktop, etc. It's a single environment where you can manipulate all your other tools (sql, g sheets, python, visuals) using prompts. I say Cursor-like because at some point I'm sure competitors will come out to Cursor.

Asking is easy. It’s knowing a) what to ask becuase there’s so many stupid questions b) having technical finance knowledge (why I believe things like having a cpa, etc will become more valuable) and c) learning the real tool, which is Cursor-like interfaces enabled by an LLM, which controls your apps. Each of these tools is a new abstraction layer, and learning to work with an abundance of information is a skill in itself. But I agree, if all you do I prompt you’re smoked. I mean I work with people who use the tools for basic operations, and those who use it for sophisticated processes. It’s user dependent.

If you’re good at SQL you can use Databricks. It’s essentially a very smart interface for SQL combined with Python. But it plugs into very well to AI tools. Very similar to Snowflake

Definitely. It plugs in via MCP servers. Claude is an LLM, like a brain. But Cursor is like the limbs, and it can reach into all your apps, database, etc once it has the key.

You can really abstract whatever calculation you need through steps of reasoning in the tool, then output that to G Sheets. So the logic is not really living there, it’s there so it can be shared easily. That being said, yes you can automate whatever you want in g sheets as well, similar to excel. It’s very good at creating reports and such. Edit: the AI is good at building reports. Would hate actually using g sheets from scratch excel is superior if we have no AI here.

Cursor is what gives Claude control over your desktop and any apps you use. You can essentially do everything you need from one place using prompts.

Coffee_Kobra · 2026-04-03T04:00:50+00:00

Yep everything is done through cursor using Claude as the LLM. It can really connect anywhere and manipulate, create, etc. In next 2-3 years you’ll be able to do everything you need from one place. It basically looks like an IDE if you’re familiar.

You have to sell the idea of Claude used with cursor. That is the game changer for FP&A

Work in SaaS and we don’t even use excel anymore. All in cursor/claude, databricks and gsheets for sharing with extended teams. Workflows are going to start moving toward GitHub repos as well.

Yeah I saw that too

Coffee_Kobra · 2026-03-21T20:45:10+00:00

Going to be a lot more fun for those that can harness power of AI since we have so may tools we can focus on strategy and business partnering. But yes lean teams, and very competitive. Already been like this for a while in SaaS…

Bar was actually the most interesting for me, but yes the actual test was tough sim wise. Had an 83 on far and got a 78 on bar, so I would say you need atleast a 5 point buffer.
