> This project from Cursor is the second attempt I've seen at this now!
I used the word "attempt" very deliberately, to avoid suggesting that either of these two projects had achieved the goal.
I don't see how you can get to "baseless hype without a hint of skepticism" there unless you've already decided to take anything I say in bad faith.
"But I didn't say this exact word!" and then accusing the other person of bad faith is some textbook DARVO.
There are already multiple attempts at building a from-scratch browser with LLM assistance. Unsurprisingly none of them have achieved full working browser status yet, several weeks after their attempts started.
