Cursor CEO Michael Truell on the future of writing code: "Our goal with Cursor is to invent a new type of programming."

"It looks like a world where you have a representation of the logic of your software that does look more like English."

"You can imagine kind of an evolution towards pseudocode. You have written down the logic of the software, and you can edit that at a high level."

"It won't be the impenetrable millions of lines of code, it'll instead be something that's much terser and easier to understand and easier to navigate."
