Letâs talk about something wild: AI is not your brain. I know, shocker.
Weâve got tools like Cursor AI now that feel like coding with Tony Starkâs JARVIS. You type //fix this bug and BOOMâmagic. But here's the thing...
Not understanding the code you write? Youâre just hitting 'start' on the microwave and calling yourself a 5-star chef
1. Donât Be a Code Zombie
If you don't get the logic, you're just typing spells without knowing the magic.
AI helps. It doesnât replace thinking.
If youâre copy-pasting code like it's a Reel dance trend you barely get, youâre doing it wrong.
Learn what a loop is. Understand conditions. Know why arrays exist. That stuff still matters in 2025.
2. Cursorâs a GPS, Not a Teleporter
Itâll guide you, but you still gotta know where youâre going.
Cursor AI is lit đ„ for:
But please... read the output. Understand it. Donât just hit "Accept" like itâs a Terms & Conditions popup.
3. Logic First, Cursor Later
If you skip the basics, Cursor becomes chaos with autocomplete.
If you donât know logic, AI will gaslight you.
Youâll be like:
âWhy is my site crashing?â
And Cursor will be like:
âHereâs a totally wrong fix, but you wonât know 'cause you skipped the arrays chapter.â
So, before going all-in on Cursor:
4. Push to GitHub or Prepare for Pain
Cursor might "fix" your app into the Shadow Realm. Git is your holy water.
This is not a drill.
Before letting Cursor touch your code like itâs Edward Scissorhands on Red Bull...
đ Push. Your. Code. To. GitHub.
Because if it messes something up (and it will), youâll need that sweet sweet git revert or backup.
No one wants to watch their project get nuked because Cursor misread a comment.
TL;DR: GitHub is your Ctrl+Z on steroids. Use it. Thank me later.
5. Storytime: Krutik Got Cooked by Cursor
I trusted the bot. It betrayed me. Learn from my pain.
I once asked Cursor to âfix this issueâ... and it deleted half my web.
Me: đ
Cursor: â
All done!
Moral of the story: Check before you wreck.
TL;DR: Use Your Brain, Then Use Cursor
Donât outsource thinking. Thatâs your job.
AI is a boost, not a brain
Learn logic, then let AI assist
Read your code. Like, actually read it
Push to GitHub before letting Cursor touch anything
Cursor is powerful. So are you. Use both
Letâs be devs who understand the code, not just copy it.
Stay curious. Stay chaotic. And donât trust AI blindlyâitâs not your mom.
