I doubt it. Cursor is an IDE with an ai co-pilot deeply integrated into it. They've literally changed the paradigm of software development by making ai-assisted coding feasible. The vibe-coding mention is reductive imo.

Another way of looking at it: Maker of "pricey electronic typewriter", Apple hits $9B valuation (FT 1984)

pretty reductive

This is like saying cars are for doing skids and speeding illegally, then telling the person who drives for a living if they “don’t have a very inflated idea about what a car is”.

Vibe coding is letting the AI take the wheel for every decision, not verifying output, progress above all. Of course it’s possible to use it in a more subtle collaborative capacity with heavy oversight.
