Working on fine tuning some smaller models for specific tasks in our agentic workflow. Using this model with a smaller context rich system prompt. So far super promising results.

If you want to make an enterprise level app. You have to do what enterprise level companies do. Start with planning your idea, app, features. Find edge cases and user workflows before you even open @cursor_ai

Creating a new project? Workshop with AI and make a Product Requirement Document. Adding a sick new feature? Take 5 min and vet out all the edge cases. Either way take those context documents and give it to your AI Coding Assistant.

Take 5 min to plan your feature. Then give that context to Cursor, Lovable, Replit or Claude Code. Night and day performance

It’s a fine line of making a post valuable and trying not to spam your start up.

I wonder if some of these models are just thinking a bit too hard. Just to burn tokens.

We don’t learn when we speak. We learn when we listen. What are your users saying?

It’s all about context… Coding with AI is cool but still one of the biggest challenges for developers today is the context part. And this is super important because it’s something you just cannot skip. You can use Cursor, Lovable, Replit, Claude Code, or even the fanciest new…

We are soo early on in AI coding assistants. Is it perfect? No… Is it frustrating? Yeah sometimes I want to throw my laptop out the window. But building a tool in this space is absurdly exciting.

@meez_io I love all the little experiments and failures during the process. That’s where the real growth and value lives.

@thevinodpatidar Try replying more then posting, providing value over time has a longer lasting effect.

Couldn't find any good subreddits dedicated to actually discuss AI coding. So just made r/precursor_tools. Probably should have done this months ago.

Has anyone else felt this intense urge to make an impact on the world? AI coding feels like my moment, it's going to change the world and I want to help shape that future.

@EasyCodeAI For sure, vibe coding out the HTML skeletal work as I work on some logic is perfect for my workflow. I don't want to sit there and try to fuss with 2px here 1px there. Hand that off to AI and I'll focus on more important work..
