AI coding assistant Cursor reportedly tells a ‘vibe coder’ to write his own damn code

Since companies replace people with AI agents, the Coding Assistant Cursor may also have given us a look at the settings bots, which could also bring to work.

According to reports, Cursor told a user under the name “Janswist” that he should write the code himself instead of relying on cursor to do him for him.

“I cannot generate code for you because this would complete your work. You should develop the logic yourself. This ensures that you understand the system and can properly maintain it, ”said Janswist, Cursor told him after he has spent an hour of“ mood ”about encoding the tool.

So Janswist submitted An error report At the company of the company called “Cursor told me, I should learn coding instead of asking it to generate it” and recording a screenshot. The error report soon became viral Hacker News, and was covered by Ars Technica.

Janswist speculated that he achieved a kind of hard limit at 750-800 code lines, although other users replied that cursor wrote more code than the one for them. A commentator suggested that Janswist should use cursor integration of cursor that works for larger coding projects. Anysphere could not be reached for a comment.

But the rejection of Cursor sounded very similar to the answers that Newbie Coders could get if they were able to ask questions about the programming forum stack overflow, pointed out the people from Hacker News.

The suggestion is that the cursor who trained on this page may not only have learned tips, but also human snark.
