Oh god, I just went to the Call Annie landing page and first thing I see is the freaky AI slop avatar...her face is the last thing I'd want to stare at while I stumble through my Japanese study session every day. I'd rather talk to the Duolingo owl I think. The lingle approach of just having my face on the screen is actually kinda clever. Maybe it could recognize by my expression when I'm confused and help me out lol. I can also see how I actually look during the conversation which imo is a big part of communicating.
Of course everything looks bad with 20/20 hindsight. it's better than 90% of AI slop products out there right now.
This was back when agents were referred to as NLP generative chatbots lol, and I can guarantee you at a minimum the devs knew how to properly handle something as simple as say connection pooling, whereas most slop products these days are just an absolute shitshow behind the scenes.
the classic defense of every failed product... "trust me, the plumbing was solid." users don't care. they saw a creepy AI face and closed the tab. you're essentially arguing that the titanic had excellent rivets.
I think you mean kool-aid, which refers to the well known American fruit-flavored drink mix brand. "Cool aid" on the other hand is completely nonsensical.
I would use this if it had a hotkey to instantly translate what I have highlighted into English in an overlay. I can see Cortex having several other keyboard shortcuts that can perform custom actions that I have set up for my account. Are there any other preconfigured shortcuts that you've thought of implementing?
Each user's Martin has a unique phone number, which is used to text and call your contacts. You can also monitor all of Martin's conversations with your contacts in the Martin iOS app.
A lot of power users use it to organize their digital life in one place (to-dos, reminders, schedules) and then they use the social integrations (slack, email, sms) to move the information around.
Congrats on the launch guys! Tried the product early on and it’s clearly improved a ton. I’m still using Cursor every day mainly because of how complete the feature set is - autocomplete, command K, highlight a function and ask questions about it, and command L / command shift L. I am not sure what it’ll take for me to switch - maybe I’m not an ideal user somehow… I’m working in a relatively simple codebase with few collaborators?
I’m curious what exactly people say causes them to make the switch from Cursor to Codebuff? Or do people just use both?
Sweet. Personally, I use both Cursor and Codebuff.
I open the terminal panel at the bottom of the Cursor window, start up `codebuff`, and voila, I have an upgraded version of Cursor Compose!
Depending on what exactly I'm implementing I rely more on codebuff or do more manual coding in Cursor. For manual coding, I mostly just use the tab autocomplete. That's their best feature IMO.
But codebuff is very useful for starting features out if I brain dump what I want and then go fix it up. Or, writing tests or scripts. Or refactoring. Or integrating a new api.
As codebuff has gotten better, I've found it useful in more cases. If I'm implementing a lot of web UI, I can nearly stop looking at the code altogether and just keep prompting it until it works.
Hopefully that gives you some idea of how you could use codebuff in your day-to-day development.
I’d love to have something like this in Xcode. Or alternatively if I could export an xcodeproj file from my Spawn project? I couldn’t imagine developing an entire launchable app in English (at least not yet). But if it could build an MVP that I can then iterate on, that would be awesome!
