I've been using cursor since it launched, sticking almost exclusively to claude-3.5-sonnet because it is incredibly consistent, and rarely loses the plot. As subsequent models have been released, most of which claim to be better at coding, I've switched cursor to it to give them a try. o1, o1-pro, deepseek-r1, and the now o3-mini. All of these models suffer from the exact same "adhd." As an example, in a NextJS app,…

o3 mini’s date cut-off is 2023, so it’s unfortunately not gonna be useful for anything that requires knowledge of recent framework updates, which includes probably all big frontend stuff.

I wish they'd just reveal the CoT (like gemini and deepseek do), it's very helpful to see when the model gets misled by something in your prompt. Paying for tokens you aren't even allowed to see is peak OpenAI.

sama and OpenAI’s CPO Kevin Weil both suggested this is coming soon, as a direct response to DeepSeek, in an AMA a few hours ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/s/EElFfcU8ZO

I'm surprised how many people claim to do this. You can just not select one.

We -- the people who live in front of a computer -- have been training ourselves to avoid noticing annoyances like captchas, advertising, and GDPR notices for quite a long time. We find what appears to be the easiest combination "Fuck off, go away" buttons and use them without a moment of actual consideration. (This doesn't mean that it's actually the easiest method.)

I can't even believe how many times in a day I frustratedly think "whatever, go away!"

Not trying to be snarky, but the example prompt you provided is about 1/15th the length and detail of prompts I usually send when working with Cursor. I tend to exhaustively detail what I want, including package names and versions because I've been to that movie before...

You’re basically saying you write 15x the prompt for the same result they get with sonnet.

This is just a way to prove, statistically, that one model is better than another as part of its validation. It's not collected from normal people using ChatGPT, you don't ever get shown two responses from different models at once.

Wait what? I get shown this with ChatGPT maybe 5% of the time

Those are both responses from the same model. It's not one response from o1 and another from o3.

I have the same experience. Just today I was integrating a new logging system with my kubernetes cluster.

I tried out the OP model to make changes to my yaml files. It would give short snippets and I’d have to keep trial and erroring its suggestions.

Eventually I pasted the original prompt to Claude and it one-shot the dang thing with perfect config. Made me wonder why I even try new models.

Well, o3-mini-high just successfully found the root cause of a seg fault that o1 missed: mistakenly using _mm512_store_si512 for an unaligned store that should have been _mm512_storeu_si512.

How do I avoid the angst about this stuff as a student in computer science? I love this field but frankly I've been at a loss since the rapid development of these models.

Angst?

It just means you're less likely be fixing someone else's "mistakenly _mm512_store_si512 for been _mm512_storeu_si512" error because AI fix(ed) it for you and you can focus on other parts of computer science. Computer science surely isn't just fixing _mm512_store_si512.

O3-mini solved this prompt. DeepSeek R1 had a mental breakdown. The prompt: “Bob is facing forward. To his left is Ann, to his right is Cathy. Ann and Cathy are facing backwards. Who is on Ann’s left?”

deepseek answered it.

OT: How many tokens are being consumed? How much are you paying for Claude APIs?
