Cursor.so: The AI-First Code Editor — Aman Sanger of Anysphere (Latent Space)
Blogswyx, Alessio Fanelli (Latent Space)Jun 14, 2023
AI Summary
The first podcast that told the Cursor story — August 2023, before any of the agent vocabulary existed. Aman Sanger explains why a small team forked VSCode rather than wait for Microsoft, the early bet on GPT-4, and the original thesis that humans should focus on bigger problems than code. Worth re-reading in 2026 against the Cursor 2.0 announcement to see how much of the original vision held and how much got rewritten by the harness era.
