This Cursor AI Coding Tutorial Will NOT Blow Your Mind!

WARNING: This AI coding video is not going to blow your mind. 😂 No crazy breakthroughs here, just a regular dude using AI to make everyday coding tasks a little faster and more efficient.

In this video, I'm walking you through a real-world scenario: updating an existing codebase based on user feedback. We're talking about the stuff most developers actually do day-to-day, not some hypothetical AI revolution.

Here's what we'll cover:

Using Gemini to analyze video feedback: I'll show you how to leverage Gemini's video understanding capabilities to turn a feedback video into actionable user stories.

Creating a Task List: We'll transform that feedback into a structured Markdown file with checkboxes – perfect for the Cursor agent to track its own progress!

Integrating with Cursor: I'll demonstrate how to use Cursor to actually implement the changes based on the generated task list. (Note: Cursor's been a bit finicky lately, as I discuss in the video, is this happening to anyone else, comment below?).

The Power of Prompts: I'll share my go-to prompt for turning complex feedback into concrete steps.

Keeping it Real: This isn't about flashy demos. It's about practical, slightly better ways to handle common coding tasks.

Why this video might be useful (even if it's not "game-changing"):

See a real-world workflow: Learn how to combine different AI tools (Gemini, Cursor) in a practical coding context.

Pick up a few tricks: Even if you're experienced, you might discover a new technique or prompt that saves you time.

Manage expectations: This is a reminder that AI in coding is often about incremental improvements, not overnight miracles.

If you've been struggling with updating large codebases, or just want to see how AI can (but doesn't always) make things a bit smoother, give this video a watch. Just don't say I didn't warn you about the lack of mind-blowing revelations! 😉
