Anybody using cursor or antigravity ?

I tried them a bit and often they can infer immense amount of ideas from the immediate source context and suggest paragraph patches semantically close to what I had in mind from just one word.

Saying this as a vi/emacs user who liked to automate via macros, snippets, dynamic overlay inserts and what not.. I still enjoy being sharp on a keyboard and navigating source / branches swiftly but LLM can match and go beyond it seems. (not promoting them, feel free to stay in good old vi command sequences if that's fun for you)

I’m using Sweep autocomplete, which is like Cursor’s but in JetBrains, and it’s very good. Most of the time, I start the change and Sweep finishes it. Sometimes for larger changes, it initially has the wrong idea, but as I continue it eventually figures out what I’m doing.

Unfortunately they’re sunsetting it, ironically apparently because people aren’t using it. I think it’s strange this hasn’t been posted to HN. They say they will release an open-source local version; otherwise I’ll have to figure out an alternative, because it really saves time and effort…
