So far, the only time AI seems to works well - and only sometimes - is as autocomplete for a single line. It does such a terrible job at generating larger chunks of code that you will spend more time correcting the problems than if you had written it yourself or used the template-based features of a half-decent IDE. It doesn’t matter which LLM you use, they are all bad. Everything an AI outputs is a hallucination, even when it’s correct. The system is not capable of reasoning or thinking, it can’t apply logic to problems. As a result, you can’t trust any code it gives you in the least.
It’s not just you. Cursor is horrible.
