I’ve been using Cursor at work (been kind of forced to, not entirely my choice) but I’m not a developer, as I do “development-adjacent” tasks. So I sometimes ask it to read large config files and such, and extract information for me.
Seeing how it works, I suspect if I asked it to write the word “elephant” 30,000 times, I kind of expect it to write a script that will do that by writing it to a file, run the script, then display the resulting file.
ChatGPT would probably just start writing “elephant” repeatedly until it runs out of context, then start doing weird things.
But I haven’t tried… To anyone reading this: feel free to try it and report back
