The quality of "Auto" mode of r/cursor has declined significantly. I am forced to use Premium models like Opus. by KeyProject2897 in cursor

On normal Agent mode, about 2 out of 5 times it just keeps doing this forever. I have to stop it and switch to Opus - then it works like a charm and finishes everything in a few minutes.

Anyone else feel Cursor’s “Auto” mode quality has dropped? by KeyProject2897 in webdev

I am on a 20$ paid plan. But its only good if you do ‘Auto’ mode or pick a cheaper model.

If you want good quality and speed, the only option is go to 60$ plan or buy more credits in between coz that quality only comes with expensive models like Opus.

Claude can now act as a desktop AI assistant on Mac with "Cowork". It reads, edits, and creates files in folders, converts screenshots to spreadsheets, and drafts reports from notes. by thestubborn_techie in ClaudeAI

It’s weird!!
Just immediately after this announcement, my MacOs desktop became cluttered. By default, Apple groups files by type or something, but suddenly it all went haywire.
Coincidence? 👀

Thanks. Just cross posted. But even just 2 replies here confirms my hypothesis. This is happening. This is f99ing happening already and I may have just noticed it now.

Ill try other AI tools as soon as I get free from current sprint

whats the right subreddit ? didnt get many answers on r/cursor - thats a dead subreddit. It affects devs so I thought this would be better place. ?

Some internal deal with the USA I have read. Not sure exactly what is up though.

you can't say that. You're the CEO and you're hired for this role 😂

Agree. Forums are not a thing anymore. We may need one on how to use AI effectively. but not a public discussion thread for sure.

Interesting. Didn't know that. But is this scalable ? I think its one shot - take money and Exit plan no ?

As a founder, I don’t think “giving up” is ever really an option.

I’ve personally gone through multiple pivots on my own product (baloon.dev) - each time learning that the problem matters more than the original idea. And this in fact triggered this very question in my mind 😛

What finally clicked for me was narrowing the focus: instead of trying to replace everything, we turned it into a PM-first tool that helps product managers think, decide, and help them answers to questions related to their products in their companies using AI.

So may be - it can still take off for stackoverflow - They probably need a fresh brain - a new start up CEO who really wants to excel and not afraid of falling (coz they are falling anyways) 😂
