Interesting. I get where you’re coming from for blank slate things or front end. But programming is rarely a blank slate like this. You have to work with existing codebases or esoteric libraries. Even with the context loaded (as well as I can) Cursor with Composer and Claude Sonnet 3.7 code (the CLI tool) have failed pretty miserably for me on simple work-related tasks. As things stand, I always regret using them and wish I wrote the code myself. Maybe this is a context problem that is solved when the models grow to use proper attention across the whole context window rather than using shortcuts or hacks due to memory limitations (this will get better as the newer NVIDIA chips land).
I would love to see an LLM fix a meaningful issue in an open source library.
