I find Cursor (or any LLM in general) to be amazing at doing very simple and concrete tasks for me. It really saves me a lot of time.
But the keyword here is "simple and concrete". I do not understand why people expect those tools to be good at tasks that involve having years of context on something. It really makes you think that the people that say that AI will replace SWEs have never actually used any of these tools.

Yes. I've loved not having to do some of the boring busywork tasks of coding. Basic CRUD pages, simple frontend stuff, general glue between existing services.
