If you're given a finite context window, what's the most efficient token to present for a programming task? sloppy prompts or actual code (using it with autocomplete)


I'm not sure you get how Cursor works. You add both instructions and code to your prompt. And it does provide its own autocomplete model as well. And... lots of people use that. (It's the largest platform today as far as I can tell)


I wish I didn't know how Cursor works. It's a great product for 90% of programmers out there no doubt.
