Hey, thanks for the shoutout and for sharing your honest thoughts! We’d love to chat about what you’re looking for and see how we can improve the general AI experience. Let’s connect!
Please you guys at Jetbrains, integrate a chatgpt feature within Intellij in the likes of cursor IDE (especially integrate that cmd+k feature with gpt or claude). This is really frustrating for devs to have only terrible third party plugins available, or your ai model which is quite frankly not on par with the competition. I'm actually thinking about leaving behind Jetbrains for VSCode because you guys are lagging behind.
What I personally experienced with JetBrains AI is that their suggestions are quite irrelevant. Even if I ask in chat about an opened page, it is not answering about it correctly, only if I point out that it should check the opened window. Also, if I had a question about Bash, and in the same chat asked another question, it gave me examples not only about Bash but also about Python and JS, which I didn't need. It feels like it loses the context of the conversation. And also, please use a better AI model; I don't know what Cursor uses, but for me personally, Claude is the best. I canceled my JB AI subscription a few weeks ago because it's not relevant, and it seems Cursor would be a good replacement. I'm not really ok with VS Code as an IDE but because of all this AI stuff...
Luke from Cursor here. Thanks so much for the video! Super happy to hear you're enjoying Cursor. Also really appreciate the feedback (esp. about git and refactoring). We're working all the time to make Cursor even better and videos like these are super helpful!
Hey Cursor folks, it’s a shame you didn’t fork IJ IDEA IDE as your baseline for Cursor ;-) . I’m a power IJ user and it’s a tough decision to switch to a different IDE for the sake of an Ai coding assistant. Plus, as stated at the end of this video, even though Cursor shines in the area of Ai integration, it has some significant shortcomings. We, IDE power users, don’t want to have to (and I’d argue shouldn’t have to) compromise when it comes to such a fundamental, core, critical tool of any developer that an IDE is.
Point 1. You can rename a variable, class, function including all it's references in VSCode too just hit F2 Point 2. You can use Git history extension in vs code, combined with the built in source control is way better than GitLens in my opinion (free) Point 3. Cursor forked a whole project without giving credit for it
@paulywalnutz5855 I don't use the generate feature much, it is the auto-complete that is the real deal. Saves so much time. It can auto-complete and suggest code on multiple lines accurately. Also the in-built GPT saves so much time because I don't have to copy-paste stuff to and from the chatgpt website every time. As to the generation, I use it when I don't know how to write a logic at all and this makes me learn it. For example I did not know how to make a selection logic for filtering e-commerce products, I asked it to generate it, and it did. And I learned the logic! And it did it accurately and efficiently because it has access to my whole project.
@@Sub0x-x40 I asked ChatGPT for example to tell me all "chapters" (in ascending order so to say) that I'd have to go through in order to learn C++ for example, and for each chapter (and sub-chapter) it should generate an exercise. And for none of those exercises should it give me the immediate solution unless I specifically ask for it. When I don't know something, I ask it to guide me in such a way that I can get to the solution myself. If I fail to get to the solution, I let the AI generate the solution for me. And that way I learn the logic behind the solution AND the proper syntax.
Does it get your entire project's code as context? Would it be able to access code from another folder to write other functions or unit tests? That would be really useful, you should absolutely test your AI generated code as you go.
I noticed you were using gpt 4o in the video. Have you tried Claude 3.5 Sonnet? Been coding 10x as better for me, and way better experience. Truly a game-gahnger. Glad to see you making a video on Cursor! Been using it for months now, and it still blows my mind to this day. Keep up the great work!
I used this to fix up a Astro landing page on netlify, w. Claude, it’s so much better than codegpt, supermaven in VS. I have near zero coding experience and skills. What cursor had over the others was that I was able to converse in a way that I was not able to with the others. It was also pretty decent when it made mistakes and i already inserted the code to fix up mistakes on building, I would just highlight those mistakes and have a chat with it and it would fix everything. I mean, I don’t even know what you programmers nowadays are getting paid for ha ha😅
The user exaperience is already there for Copilot in Vs Code, referring the highlighted code automatically, having a shortcut on top of the highlighted code to chat, I mean all of it. And it is also at the upload time of this video. What is going on?
Nice succinct overview of Cursor. Did you use the default model, aka ChatGPT? I’ve heard Claude 3.5 is even better. Also - if you really dislike VS Code give Zed a try.
Metrix: cursor just using vscode as their Code editor with a ai copilot. Just like browser companies silver wrapped with chromium and a pre-installed ad blocker.
GH Copilot and AI Assistant have had the content aware feature for some time now, but GH Copilot often uses more 3.5 GPT and JetBrains AI also uses a combination of 3.5 and 4 plus their own LLM. In cursor you can use whatever type of model you need from ChatGPT and even some of Gemini, Claude, Llama, etc. Don't need to worry about some extensions and their usability and stability. I think VS Code is going to be improved in time, but not in this line.
Cursor, Ecliplse thea like once you taste electron you can never leave it and as cant leave so just for vs code and add some new feature most of which can be added just by building an extension and if you want build using native or better crossplatform framework
@@YourAverageTechBrowow, thanks for share. I also struggle to move from excellent webstorm into cursor vs code ide. I hope as u say webstorm will add this functionally also some day
Hey! Do you know where i can make like demo videos of my saas to put it on landing page? idk how to explain but there is also like a moving cursor, zoom etc (startups usually put it as their demo on landing page)
Jetbrains is a funny company, they have great ideas. Even their learning product, hyperskill, is honestly a really good idea, BUT IT'S SO BLOATED AND SLOW, rather hit myself in the family jewels than use it. Now, their editors aren't so slow, but like you pointed out, definitely bloated.
I bet you this has a lot of start ups scrambling lol. Well... if it's boot strapped implementing a.i more into vs code probably wouldn't be too challenging
Hi Bro! I love what you're doing and new subscriber here! By the way, I help content creators to increase their online presence through video editing and enhancing their post and reels for better engagement and audience retention, which is why I'm tuning into your vlog and learning a lot. Just sending this message because I love your work!
I wasn’t able to finish watching the video. It feels like a paid advertisement. Did they offer you a paid tier for this video? Copilot is x2 cheaper than Cursor. About the features: 1. You can bind a shortcut to open Copilot chat to get a similar experience. 2. How often do you change the function names? Especially extending a simple function with extra logic. Using imaginary problem to demonstrate a solution is a bad idea. Also, using bad coding practices.
oh wow an AI that will read my entire codebase and generate more unmaintainable react, sorry, serverless nextjs on the edge, best in class, used by - bullshit that nobody is gonna understand and probably sell that same codebase to

Cursor is not “built from the ground up”. It is a fork of vscode focused on ai features. Zed though, is an editor built from scratch.
hit F2 in VSCode (and probably Cursor) and it will rename a function or variable and change all references in the project. No AI required
Point 1. You can rename a variable, class, function including all it's references in VSCode too just hit F2
Point 2. You can use Git history extension in vs code, combined with the built in source control is way better than GitLens in my opinion (free)

Dude, I love your content. You look a little bit tired comparing to old videos. I hope you're well and get enough sleep. Cheers, you the best
you shouldn't be changing function names with find and replace, you should be using "refactor" which automatically changes all instances for you
Yea I was scratching my head when he said that was a huge feature over VSCode, you don't need AI for function name refactoring.
@@dollarquantums i guess i commented too soon because later he shows refactoring the normal way ... but then why say the AI way does anything for you?
fyi: github's copilot has recently invested few millions of smackeroonies into cursor ide - so expect either a merger or a buyout next year -
holy
Cursor has changed my coding life and fast-tracked my learning process 1000%
Looking forward trying it, just installed it :)

I also recommend Cody because you can choose the model to use, do in-place editing, and give exact context (specific files, or whole project).
Does it get your entire project's code as context? Would it be able to access code from another folder to write other functions or unit tests? That would be really useful, you should absolutely test your AI generated code as you go.

You should try JetBrains, with Codeium extension. Basically what Cursor offers, with shortcuts etc and all in JetBrains IDE
I've tried it but I found it was still missing the "tab to next predicted line change" feature. At least it was missing last time I tried it.
The user exaperience is already there for Copilot in Vs Code, referring the highlighted code automatically, having a shortcut on top of the highlighted code to chat, I mean all of it. And it is also at the upload time of this video. What is going on?
I use Jetbrains and I really like the supermaven plugin. Does really well and you can add files to context. Works with Claude and OpenAI.
Great demo. Would love to see you review codeium that I've tried after seeing it in fireship channel
was seeing pan’s work on Pear AI talking about cursor but was too lazy to look into it so glad you made this video hahaha
i watched his vid the other day too haha. def try out cursor though - it's pretty good
Also, you didn't mention the best feature that is the "Accept/Reject" for changes and git style with Red and Green lines for changes.

Do you code mostly in A.I changing the code to your project preferences?
Why is everyone talking about Cursor and not Aider when Aider knows your entire codebase!
You can just change names of things in vscode using f2 and it will also propagate everywhere
im waiting for someone to try zed and see if its actually better than cursor since they just launched an AI feature
You can get vscode on a new machine instantly to be as you like by just adding a .vscode file on your repo and customising it there…

remain with webstorm or work with Cursor?
