#447 – Cursor Team: Future of Programming with AI
Lex Fridman Podcast
Embrace Intelligent Guidance to Simplify Complex Edits
Non-intuitive diff reviews present challenges, especially with larger edits or multiple files, making it difficult to effectively review changes. Improved solutions should focus on distinguishing critical changes from repetitive low-entropy content, potentially highlighting significant parts and downplaying the less important ones. An intelligent model could pinpoint areas of concern, such as likely bugs, suggesting they require closer scrutiny. This approach aims to enhance user experience in software engineering by optimizing the review process, thus facilitating developers in focusing on essential review tasks while reducing their overall workload. As diff algorithms evolve, they should incorporate more intelligence to manage increasingly complex changes, ultimately assisting programmers in navigating their verification duties without overwhelming them.
