I'm in the middle of this right now.. Handover would be super helpful. Cool concept. Kind of reminds me of I Robot where you can ask specific queries to holograms
Slightly unrelated, but Eleven Labs (the AI voices company) has obtained the rights to Laurence Olivier's voice. How long until I can video chat with Laurence Olivier and ask him about which tasks my agents have completed today?
I doubt it. Cursor is an IDE with an ai co-pilot deeply integrated into it. They've literally changed the paradigm of software development by making ai-assisted coding feasible. The vibe-coding mention is reductive imo.
Another way of looking at it:
Maker of "pricey electronic typewriter", Apple hits $9B valuation (FT 1984)
I mean I tried C# integration and Cursor does not even fix all compilation errors before reporting it has "completed the task". Feels like that's the most basic integration you can have beyond reviewing diffs.
That's a fair question and point. I'm not die-hard Cursor fan. Use what works best for you, but I'm just more so commenting that the vibe-coding part totally minimizes what the offering is.
This is like saying cars are for doing skids and speeding illegally, then telling the person who drives for a living if they “don’t have a very inflated idea about what a car is”.
Vibe coding is letting the AI take the wheel for every decision, not verifying output, progress above all. Of course it’s possible to use it in a more subtle collaborative capacity with heavy oversight.
you're not. looks like that's kind of it, but would the thing have the context of the whole project when I'm in a file/class/function? With copilot, in my case, it was so far mostly like a fancy autocomplete that has immediate vicinity in its memory where it would be vastly more useful if it had the context of the whole project / all files.
Once chatGPT and Claude (through MCP) added web search functionality I completely dropped Perplexity. I assume I'm not unique in this regard. Feels like the writing is on the wall for Perplexity.
I assume he's just being over dramatic. I use Perplexity every day, multiple times per day, and it almost completely replaced Google for me in such areas as coding or technological research. Also, I never used nor planning to use ChatGPT or Claude (I use private open models instead - Mistral Nemo, Qwen, etc.). But I also feel like "I'm not unique in this regard", lol.
It's mostly a decision to manage the total amount I spend on LLM tools. Given unlimited money I suppose I'd still be subscribed to Perplexity because the UI is slightly better than Claude and chatGPT for web results. But Claude and chatGPT are plenty enough for my web use cases while allowing me full access to all of their models for non web search use cases.
Yeah, I keep using the $1/mo promotions for Perplexity but I only really use it because it can read the results to me which I use for practicing foreign languages, so there's that.
I don't have an answer for your questions but this comment really stood out to me. Maybe it's just my years in tech, but I have never thought of conflict resolution in the context of a tech problem to solve. The only format of this I can think of is anonymous forums or communications tech. Otherwise, it's very out of the box thinking which is great to see.
One example that came to mind was providing information on various sides of an issue (I’m thinking of alternative media, Wikipedia in some sense, although it’s still a bit biased.) Essentially the internet as a communication medium allows for more viewpoints to be distributed and understood. Unfortunately in practice, no one is really using it to try and understand each other and solve conflicts. Instead, they’re still trying to push certain viewpoints and exclude others.
Thanks so much for the feedback - super valuable!! I added a sample button on the homepage that links to an example entry and also am working on the mobile UI.
