Cursor and Claude Opus 4.5 is a game changer

The combination of the two delivers on the promise: fast and clever editing of multiple files in a codebase, with minimal human intervention.

No other model I tried in Cursor comes even close.

Question: did anyone tried Claude Codex: as good as Cursor?

Try Claude Code, especially with plugins and max plans.

All these AI coding tools make me feel like I have superpowers. It’s addictive.

If I had problems finding time and the mental power or motivation to work on projects a few years ago—projects I deemed too large a commitment of time and effort—today with Claude and Cursor I almost have too much time and bandwidth to take on new projects.

When I step back and realize this is the world we’re living in as programmers, I can barely believe it. I want to shout and laugh from joy.

It’s been months since I’ve manually written more than a few lines of syntax, and I can’t imagine ever going back.

If AI coding tools disappeared from the world today, tomorrow I would stop being a programmer—something I’ve done for over 20 years.

That thought makes me excited and scared

I haven’t written any single line of code but i have been able to plan and come up with new ideas faster

I’m more of a product manager than a coder due to these new AI coding tools
