Evidence

I used an AI app called Cursor, which relies on large language models to write code on its own. You type in your idea—“A game where a kid scrubs toothpaste out of a sink”—and the AI does the rest.

Functional, playable, slightly glitchy magic. — Joanna Stern, I Am Not a Robot- My Year Using AI to…, 611
